I don't know why, but there seem to be a lot of posts to the list in HTML format lately. While a lot of them have come from people with Hotmail accounts, there may be others, too. I realize that many of you may not have any choice in this matter, but many of you probably do but just don't realize it. Please check your options and and turn this one off if possible. The option you want is "plain text" or ASCII, not HTML or RTF, both of which make your message much larger. I think it has been mentioned here that users of AOL 6.0 are forced to use HTML, but I don't know about Hotmail. Can someone out there tell us? Since the point of this is to save space in the list archives, this is also a good time to mention that when you send a reply to the list, you should edit out everything from the original message that is not absolutely necessary to understanding your reply. thanks, - Jim Adney jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, WI 53711-3054 USA ------------------------------------------------------------------- Search old messages on the Web!
