Hi! I have just got an email from Allan and one I sent him at [EMAIL PROTECTED] got
cropped.

I think it may be that I used Note Pad or what ever to copy some material and
it was removed.

Sure Roger
But its not happening to all of us so does that mean
that its something outside of the basic listserve setup?? There has got to
be virus or virus protection setup involved in this I think? Different
versions of browser software maybe??
I was'nt meaning to "have a go" at you or anybody else. Maybe if we put
together a list of those affected and those not and the systems they are
running it might show something up ??

I don't think anyone's complaining about the list set-up, Lloyd, 
certainly I'm not.  It is frustrating when I go to read a message and 
there's nothing there but it would not make me quit as a member, and I 
don't think it would anyone else. I'd just like to find out why this 
glitch is occurring and there's no harm in that.

Hi Allan  and other list members

This is all working good for me too. I have had no problems with the
workings of this list at any stage since joining  (fell off a couple of
times but the archive is open to all so its a simple matter to keep up via
archive until you are reinstated) and I would like to congratulate Allan for
setting this up . Its simple, open, free of advertising garbage and other
assorted internet junk, and best of all it works!
So for any of you that are maybe a bit cheesed off of late by the
"strippings" here is my experience with compost tea list. Which was once
here and working OK  - I have tried to no avail to get connected since they
moved - I just wasted another hour and a half this morning - the yahoo site
is a clutter of commercial rubbish, every time I tried to get on I was told
someone else was already using my name and login and I should go away and
think up another one - I finally got in this morning (I thought) then
couldnt find the archive - the whole thing has been frustrating and if I
eventually succeed the site is a mess of other stuff and slow to operate as
well. So hang in there we have got a good thing going with this list
Cheers all

No problems here, no empty emails in my BDnow email folder.

My suggestion is the new server software is stripping out the HTML 
bloat that the mainstream email software insists on sending and 
reading by default setup. When I inspect the raw message data of the 
posts that have caused conternation with other listees, there is a 
telltale end of line marker that indicates that the text was part of a 
MIME post, the HTML code isn't there.

IMO... good on the new software! Lets keep the archives and 
download times lean and mean by switching our emailers to TEXT 
only. My version of Pegasus emailer does that by default. ;-)

HTH... Rex

Allan, I have not had any stripped attachments.

I've been asked to ask the list how many people are receiving their 
mail just fine?

i'm not having problem with either of my accounts.

As you probably know, BD Now! 'originates' remote from me and I
