[CTRL] PLEASE POST IN TEXT FORMAT ONLY! (WAS: Re: [CTRL] The MYTH of EVOLUTION - SCIENTISTS SPEAK!)

2000-04-19 Thread Robert F. Tatman

Let me extend this request to ALL members of CTRL. PLEASE, people, post ONLY
in *text format*. Sure, I use Outlook Express and can read HTML messages
fine...much better, obviously, than Tenorlove and the others who use
Web-based mail such as Yahoo! and Hotmail. But as an IT professional, I also
know that HTML messages can carry viruses, especially if you use Outlook 9x
or 2000 and have enabled Word as your e-mail editor. There are also
Javascript and VBScript "viruses" that can travel directly in HTML, as well
as nasty Java applets that might as well be viruses. It's not simply a
matter of politeness, although that *is* a factor in my request. It's really
a matter of information hygiene--keeping your e-mail free of anything that
can, even potentially, harm someone else's system.

Please try to follow these two basic rules:
1. Always use text format. Not everyone has a mail program that can handle
HTML or fancy formatting.
2. Don't use attachments or URLs when you want to share something with the
list. Copy and paste the text into a message, and post *that*. (AOL users,
could you please try to keep that in mind? I know AOL doesn't make it easy,
but it really would help if you could *paste* text into your messages
instead of just forwarding it as an attachment.)

Thanks for helping

Bob

 Could the person who posted this please re-post in PLAIN TEXT? It's
 impossible to read in HTML, the type is way too small and fuzzy. Thanks
 in advance.

and 'conspiracy theory'—with its many half-truths, misdirections and outright

be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no credence to Holocaust denial and

As a research professional I like to have the citations
of what ever propaganda is being fed to me.  If it is
good I like being able to use those citations when
I write my own essays.  Normal an web page is easy to
read.  As far as it's capability of having a virus -
from now on I will put a dis-claimer on a post that it
is a web page and allow a person the choice of opening it.

My netscape will not allow me to paste the text from a
FRAME page on it in the original formatting.  I do not have
the time to re-do formatting.  This also comes into play in
another way since I have two lists that come in through
my Explorer browser and If I want to post those
First I have to send it to my mailbox that is tied to my
Netscape browser then I have to reformat to send it.
to give you some idea of what happens when I type a full line
000
this email program does not allow it, but it will send a web page in
original
I will preface it with a HTML tag in the subject line and attempt to
make sure that I never send anything like that one.
I could not read it either.
