Thanks to all those who responded to to me privately on this issue. I've re-subscribed to the forum, but I'm still getting the posts as ezm attachments.
However, as a result of your collective suggestions I worked out what I need to to with them. I've created a an association that fires up my favourite rtf editor . I could have used notepad, but the day may come when limited formatting is allowed in these posts. Why not OO - my favourite rtf editor loads at notepad speeds whereas OO takes a more than a tad longer. I suspect ezm denotes EzMail, the mail list software calls itself "ezmlm" - EzyMail List Manager ? Why it doesn't send the posts as text attachments I don't know Whoever has influence over this program might like to make some changes so that post attachments are sent as .txt files, or put instructions into the boilerplate response to the subscribe request suggesting folks set up a file association for "ezm" attachments to their favourite text editor. Throwing out OOo was never a real option, but it certainly resulted in me getting a response - why probably tells us something about human nature
