Hi All,

After seeing this post from our List Adm I remember that at times when I
send email I get a pop up message asking if I want to send my message
HTML.  Now I do not know a whole lot about this HTML stuff, but I went
into Preferences and under Mail & Groups/ Messages I found "by default
send HTML messages".  I use Netscape 4.06, so I bet that there are a lot
of us out there sending HTML w/o knowing it.
