Well, since Raman has somehow gotten VM to parce HTML it isn't as difficult as it was before to read it, but I still maintain that email messages should be in plain text. I dunnow why URL's don't work when they are in plain text, my mailer does this. But then, I'm not running Windows. Steve, don't leave the list. I think censorship is a strong word to use in this case. If our list restricts HTML, it isn't restricting what's being said, only the method by which it comes. But hey, I'm just a voter for plain text. If you want HTML, that's fine. I'll go with the majority. Maybe a simple request that people not send HTML to this list would suffice. Maybe I'm too cynical and crusty. Maybe people *will* take responsibility for their own software and be accountable. It's a novel concept, but I've seen miracles before now. Ann P. -- Ann K.
