RE: [KLF] RANT: Please don't sent HTML emails
Hi,
It'd really make me very happy if those sending HTML emails could stop. Send plain text only. If you need help turning off the HTML, or even determining if you are sending HTML, email me offlist and I'll do all I can to help.
Some years ago the list-server automatically converted html-messages to plaintext. Cheers, Wouter

well i saw this one in txt, but of the 9 msgs i picked up tonight, 6 display in html. one has a aqua background for $deity's sake. i'll happily send screen caps to anyone who wishes to disbelieve. its really easy to fix, so if everyone just took a minute now and clicked a few times, it'd really make my day. i'm sorry to rant on what isnt that critical in the scheme of things, but i'm a geek, and html email bugs me. night night, brendan

I get individual messages, all as texts, no HTML. Unfortunately I can't remember how I set that up, but just thought I'd post to assure you that it can be done... The way of the internet: on a KLF list, a discussion about HTML mail goes on for some time but my fairly long post about meeting Bill Drummond goes completely ignored! <grin> Stuart. -- Stuart Bruce - klf@atomiser.demon.co.uk or preferably stuart@atomiser.demon.co.uk The Utah Saints Mailing List http://groups.yahoo.com/group/utahsaints/
Here Here. Html is purely a member's option and preference. I do not care as I have a large email account. Others do not. But take up a better part of a week complaining about it, I think that is out of line. I for one would like to hear more about you meeting Bill. I could care less about Plain Text, Html, Xml, HTTP, or any of that other shit. This is about the KLF and related topics. I am sorry for asking (Off Topic) stuff from time to time. But in the End, IT Helps us all. I run and give freely of my KLF material. I think that it is ok to ask a (Off topic) question once and a while. Besides, I get postings all the time for FTP access and I always reply to them...most of them. WE all have a valuable resource here to use. Let use it instead of complaining about HTML....Please RMStringer/Renigadce _________________________________________________ Opver and Out!!!! -----Original Message----- From: klf-admin@mailman.xmission.com [mailto:klf-admin@mailman.xmission.com]On Behalf Of Stuart Bruce Sent: Friday, September 13, 2002 2:34 PM To: KLF mailing list Subject: Re: [KLF] RANT: Please don't sent HTML emails On Fri 13 Sep, brendan wrote:
