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 :)
