Some people using, I think, the email capabilities of Netscape and/or MSIE
have MIME encoding turned on. This allows others using a MIME capable email
packages to show special characteristics such as bold, color text, etc.
Apparently this is getting screwed up on the listserver. I will look into
this, but in the meantime, my recommendation is to turn off MIME encoding.
It either produces these weird effects such as red background, or appends a
string of text with the embedded commands that makes a real mess of the
list.
I appreciate your cooperation.
