Merry Christmas to all, especially Civileme, Sridhar, Ed, Tom and all of
you helpful people !

Who can help Mick (a fellow-newbie in need) ? - He had a hard time
setting up his new linux-mandrake-system, and I've tried to help him to
the best of my ability. After some hazzles he succeeded to get his
linux-box up and running, but now he somehow can't post to this list ???
- I wrote to Mick as follows :


>>Well Mick, I'm not sure, but it seems that it's the Mandrake-server that
>>refuses to accept your mail ?
>>Anyway, I can see that you are using some mailer called "Microsoft
>>Outlook Express". As far as I know, that mailer is better known as a
>>"virus propagator and trojan horse dispenser", so maybe the folks at
>>Mandrake have taken their precautions - eh ?
>>
>>Furthermore, I can see that your mail is in html-format. - Most people
>>on our list prefer to receive mail in plain text - not that I think it
>>matters much ?
>>
>>Mick, I'm in no way a mail-guru, so the right place to ask your question
>>is the list. However, it seems that you are unable to do that right now 
>>! - Accordingly I'll put it there for you. 

Help Mick anyone ???
