With the editor set to always use HTML I would forget and compose an email to this list in HTML, only to have the email rejected (which I saw on my next fetch) with the sentence "The message's content type was not explicitly allowed." I would then have to retrieve the email from my SENT folder, change it to plain text and re-send it. Have you ever deliberately sent an HTML email to this list and had it go through? >> Can I set the editor to always >> use HTML but restrict messages to TB! to always be in >> plain text?
