I've been having an off-list discussion with gordon52 at slingshot dot co dot nz, who is having a problem posting anything to the list. Apparently when he sends something, the list manager thinks it's got attachments and bounces it. Now when he sends me a message - no attachments. Can anyone out there in MySQL-land help, since I'm using Lotus Notes, and not Eudora? At this 16:45 5/04/02 +0200 told us all something interesting :- >Your message cannot be postsed to mysql@ because it >contained an attachment.
