Stu,
Out of your four transmission so far this year, only one was garbled at my
end. It was date 1/8/99 and the subject was "Sunbeam for Sale". I think
what may have happened was you copied some HTML text from another source
and pasted it into your List e-mail. Remember, the list server only accepts
plain text messages. My e-mail program warns me when I'm sending anything
but plain text, which has saved me from making this mistake on a couple of
occasions.
You may want to re-send your 1/8/99 message after converting the text from
HTML to plain.
Regards,
Bob
