Yes, I think he's plonked me too. His loss.

Telemon seems to have plonked me though. Hmmm. Cheers! Pete & Renee Davis writes: Hello Al, Thank you for your rationally presented points about my using HTML to post. In that light, I would be happy to try to change my settings. Can anyone tell me how reset my browser to post in plain text? I use Netscape Navigator 4.7.

MOST NEWS READERS DON'T HANDLE HTML. Please learn to post in plain text. Thanks. Actually, most newsreaders can handle HTML these days. Unless you are still using something ancient like pine and emacs, you have nothing to worry about. MT-NW 3.4 can certainly handle it. I know because I use it on my OS X box also.

Scott 23 tube Imperial Allwave in Tasman cabinet (1936) True, many can handle it but it is considered poor practice and highly discouraged to use HTML in both email and newsgroup postings. Much spam comes via HTML so at least give those of us who try to fight it a sporting chance. Consequently, I use Gnus/Emacs and it will display HTML but I wash all posts anyway. Long Live Gnus!!
