Hi All !

Pretty strange stuff, as i do not get these . Do they show up as
attachments at yours ?

When i subscribe to this kind of thing, i always try to subscribe by
email, i hate filling in those things, so i avoid, if possible .
With onelist this was possible, dunno about egroups .

Now a pet peeve of mine ;-) (Hi, Paul S)

I do not use html (a bloody waste of bandwith and a crazy
spacewaster) (see below)

Ok, it's time for some more micro$oft bashing : David Bivins, your
outlook express does strange things, when you responded to Juergens
mail, your response was html, when responding to Dave Bradley, no
html . Strange i reckon . Juergen, your debitel outlook express
does similar things : your responses to Charles Stella's and David
Bivins html sent same, but the answer about the Voyetra is not in
html . Seems you guys have some sort of "send same as received"
option checked (some switches are not easy to find, but this is 2nd
hand info, ask Paul) . And Charles Stella is using NS Mozilla, but
he responded to a normal mail . Hmmm... So Charles originates html .
According to Pegasus, my mail prog, the original is 2.2k long .
Charles quoted this mail and added about double the text . Result :
an html mail of 19k .

Here's the bashing : outlook crap is configured out of the box to
send html in all it guises, seems Billy wants to force this upon us .
He bought into providers, so he'll cash in again, with all this
wasted bandwith . Hmm, i wonder if he has stock in HD manufacturers
as well ;^P

Hope this helped .


Keep 'em oscillating :)
