[WSG] Read Receipts!

[Peter Firminger]

John (and anyone else that has them on by default),   Turn off read receipt requests when posting to this list! These horribly invasive things are worse than spam and I get most of them returned to me being the list administrator! I have 47 so far, thanks mate.   There are 580+ addresses on this list and some people have their settings to automatically return the receipt.   I advise everyone to set their preferences to either deny all read receipt requests or at least ask before sending them (and in the case of WSG list messages always deny them).   I wish this feature of email had never been included or at worst the default setting was deny all in client settings. It is a breach of your own privacy if you don't deny them. As a lurker, no-one (except the administrators) on the list knows your address but if you send a read receipt you may be exposed to the sender or even the whole list.   Peter (unimpressed list dad)       From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of John McDougald Sent: Thursday, April 29, 2004 2:08 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [WSG] SMH launch Pete, I just check with Opera and everything looks fine.

Heres a screenshot of the new smh site with a browser window set narrower than the content (note the body bg mis-aligned with the left nav): http://www.c41.com.au/test/opera7_2_squished.jpg   any ideasof a way to make these browsers keep the background image aligned hard left and not adversly affect anything else?   pete
