It just seems strange that simply hitting the reply button, and typing in text in the reply, to an email that the WAMUG email server accepted would produce the result.

I've checked my Apple Mail settings and it is set to 'rtf' as always (I presume that is the default).

When I think about it ... I copied a paragraph of text from the BigPlod Support Page and pasted it into my message of reply to Neil.

I wonder if that caused the problem? Maybe what I was pasting was more than plain text or at least interpreted by the mail software as more than plain text? Does that make sense?

Same here.

And now my emails to WAMUG have started playing up with this error message:

Failed to deliver to '<[email protected]>'
LIST module(list wamug) reports:
 Your message cannot be posted.
 It has the content-type: multipart/alternative,
 and this list accepts text only

This is an unrelated problem...

The list is configured to accept text only emails. No attachments, no HTML MIME, just good old fashioned text. (This makes people on GPRS/modems/slow connections/Onno happy)

I do agree that it could be handled a bit better though from CommuniGate,
