Puzzled, I had to check.  There is a '/single quote either side of the name 
element.  It seems to be a server thing, a second level 
of packaging where it takes name and via vi-phone in double quotes, followed by 
real address in <>.

Why my message is flagged as via the group and yours isn't is probably an admin

Hahahahahahaha,  they thought it was me who was mad yesterday when I responded 
to this.

Ok, some mindless Alexa questions you hardly wanted to know beyond whether she 
could answer them.  But I'm trying  extensions to the 
suggestions and getting somewhere, had to fight it this morning though.

She does do a good line in slightly higher maths when testing her on geometry 
and trig,...  sin, Cos, Tan, Log and other bits and 
pieces.  Does a good line in roots too;  cube root being one of the less common 
and most useful.

But I was asking about rivers, Danube, Volga and another got through ok,  but 
Rhine, one of Europe's most important;  got a wide 
varietyof responses before getting enough of the right keywords in the right 
order to get a meaningful answer. A.I isn't always as 
smart as it thinks, and this is what they are going to use to drive cars, and

Worth sticking with the What's new in alexa email for further tips and tricks.

AmazonWas there anything in this message, apart from a, seemingly, endless list 
of web garbage.  If there was, I couldn't find it, 
and as I am about to fathom the mysteries of Alexa and kin, I would, most 
assuredly, find it of help.
Last night, I opened the "Ask Alexa" app on my iphone, and was presented with a 
long list of questions that she could answer: 
hardly one of which would I ever want to ask!

2018-04-21 Thread 'RobH.' via VIPhone 
Puzzled, I had to check.  There is a '/single quote either side of the name 
element.  It seems to be a server thing, a second level 
of packaging where it takes name and via vi-phone in double quotes, followed by 
real address in <>.

Why my message is flagged as via the group and yours isn't is probably an admin 
setting somewhere.

If your Email is set to plain text and anyone sends you an html Email, that is 
what will happen.
Most people use html these days, but if you have need of sticking with plain 
text, then you'll have that kind of stuff happen a lot I would think.
Depending on your program, if you could view it in your browser, that might 
clean it up for you.

Glad my paste of it worked.
