Singling him out--however I did *not* single him out. I *said* that his was there, and I didn't, in fact, mention that it was the most egregious html mail in several digests. I chose that specifically for being, also, as long as it was, to drive home to those who read this list just why the rest of us are complaining, *NOT* to attack Mr. Wheeler. I'm just *trying* to give them a clue that means something. This was not a "breach of Nettiquite. Go find the Netiquitte FAQ. I did not flame *either* Mr. Wheeler, nor anyone else. I made no personal attacks. In fact, if you found fault with what I said, I'd say that it was more appropriate for you, Mr. Goldin, to email me directly. Also, as another poster mentioned, there was no reason not to edit your post, so as to cut out my very long example. That, in fact, is a breach of Nettiquite, which says that one should cut out items that do not directly relate to putting your message in context. If you would like to talk about this further, please - let's take it offline. Email me at <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. Note that I have cc'd you, as well as posted to the list. This should *not* be about acrimony, but about the appropriate strategy and tactics to teach newbies about the culture they're coming into. Oh, and btw, I read my email these days in kmail. I have "view email as html" explicitly turned off, so that (and I am *not* referring to anyone here, but to my daily dose of spam) some idiot's frivolous javascript, or extreme M$ extensions that nothing but vx.xxx of IE will render, will not crash kmail. Again, it's all about content, not style. mark -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@;redhat.com?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@;redhat.com?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
