Tom already replied regarding the NOHTML option with the listserv software and said he was going to check on the cost of an upgrade.  My question is, if the new software completely eliminates HTML, does
that mean that it doesn't let HTML-formatted emails through, or does it just strip out all the HTML code?

BTW, Frank, you can still have links in your sig lines, you just can't use the <a href> tag to try to make them look nice.
