John, or jb (if you prefer):
The Text Encoding setting in your email program needs to be changed.
The setting seems to be set to "windows-1252" and needs to be set to
"ISO-8859-1." If you are using Mail, then Text Encoding is the last
item under the Message menu. Set it to Default.
Also, this list will not accept Rich Text Format (rtf). I think it
accepts Plain Text only. Under the Format menu select Make Plain Text
before sending.
Hope that helps.
Scott

Have tried several times to post a new topic, but keep getting the
following rejection:
Failed to deliver to '<G-Books@mail.maclaunch.com>'
LIST module(list G-Books) reports:
Your message cannot be posted.
It is composed using the 'windows-1252' character set,
and this list accepts ISO-8859-1 only
I copied the text of the message from a TextEdit rtf file, and just
pasted it into a regular Mac Mail message. What's up with this
"windows" stuff?
