Those of you who are using such software as Netscape Communicator or Microsoft

Outlook to work with e-mail (at least on your FFML-subscribed account) may want

to seriously consider resetting your e-mail software to work in plain ASCII

format, instead of using the HTML editor to write and send e-mail. In Netscape

Messenger, open the Preferences window, click on "Formatting" under "Mail and

Newsgroups," and then select "Use the plain text editor to compose messages" in

the Message formatting menu.



I don't have any Microsoft e-mail or Internet software on my machine (or if

it's there anyway, I don't USE it) so I'm not sure how you would set that

option, but I'm sure that it's there somewhere ... just dig through the e-mail

formatting preferences and find the option which says to write and/or send

messages as plain text or ASCII instead of HTML.



Just trying to be helpful to folks, since I've noticed the recent spate of HTML

messages getting redirected to /dev/null by Listar. Best way to avoid that is

to send your messages as plain ASCII text. n.n
