Many mail lists do this, limit any img, java, asp, ect from the list. Only allow such tags as FONT, Bold, size, color ect.      -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of Jeremy Oswalt Sent: Monday, August 11, 2003 1:48 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [smartBridges] A NOTE FROM THE LIST DADDY Hehe . . . I was going to say the same thing.  I don’t understand all the whining about html.  Suck it up.  Most people that send embedded files get flamed afterwards.  I’d prefer just limiting email sizes to 1 meg or even 512K.  I hate the stupid >>> >>after each >>>>line so you can’t get the correct >>URL’s that people post.  HTML allows for the fancy word wraps.   Jeremy -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of beckman Sent: Monday, August 11, 2003 2:11 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [smartBridges] A NOTE FROM THE LIST DADDY     I don't know what everyone's bit#h is about HTML, and I hope you realize that the past emails on this chain are HTML.   It is what gives you that pretty blue on the reply text.    -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of Scott Damron Sent: Monday, August 11, 2003 12:16 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [smartBridges] A NOTE FROM THE LIST DADDY Not to mention all of us who HATE(!!)

Any way this change in the lists could also block HTML and just allow plain text? It would have to cut down on the bandwidth and be a bit easier on your server.   Tom ----- Original Message ----- Subject: [smartBridges] A NOTE FROM THE LIST DADDY   Hi all   Presently we have about 5000+ members on our various P15 lists and generate in excess of a few thousand messages per month.   Many list members for whatever their personal reasons are elect to receive list traffic through "generic" email addresses. Most of these generic mail boxes have very small size limits to them.   P15 receives up to 1000 rejects/notices per day of returned mail from the use of these generic mailboxes that exceed the members quota or are otherwise undeliverable.   In our effort to keep the lists running smooth, this Friday (August 15th) we plan to disallow list membership for the following addresses:   @yahoo.com @hotmail.com @excite.com   I am opening this up for continued conversation in an effort to hear from the list members as to their concerns regarding this new list policy. I will listen to each and every concern and will make the final determination Friday morning.   Regards Michael
