Guest guest Posted August 1, 2004 Report Share Posted August 1, 2004 Hello, lin. It seems that you are sending posts with HTML format (that's why Yahoo adds the " non-text portions... " notice.) Perhaps if you send your messages in plain text format, this problem will be solved.

Guest guest Posted August 12, 2004 Report Share Posted August 12, 2004 Hi Marilyn! >Just a comment here, what would REALLY help me on your replies >is if you put a line or too of space between what your replying to and >your reply, i enjoy your comments but often find myself searching >for where your comment begins and what your replying to ends! I know what you mean; top-posting, and poor quoting in general, are my little bugbears ;-) I cut my comms teeth back in the days of good old Fidonet, when *everyone* knew how to quote properly and, what's more, so did the software that they were using B-) It seems that modern email clients don't know the first thing about netiquette; at any rate, they seem not to know anything other than how to top-quote. Are you listening, Micro$oft? ;-) regards, Eddie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
