Please DO NOT reply to this on the list
I'm the Admin of this list, and I would like to ask for your help if I may.
This pertains to digest subscribers ONLY, so folks subscribed in list mode
please completely disregard it.
The current default format on this list for digest posts is called "MIME,"
which means you will receive each digest as a single post usually once a day
with each individual post for that day appearing as an attachment. This is
the one exception to what you may have heard about no attachments on RW
lists, but these are quite safe to open. To read or reply to one of the
attached posts, you simply double-click it to open it, after which you can
reply to it if you choose to. Generally, replying to it will require little
or no editing or trimming as was needed with previous digests here.
I have recently become aware that reportedly A FEW service providers do not
receive this type of digests very well, although the large majority of them
do. If you are not able to double-click on an attachment and read it
properly, then it is possible that your service provider may be one of the
very few unable to receive and deliver them correctly. If so, please drop
me a line OFF LIST AT MY ADMIN ADDRESS BELOW, and I will return your
subscription to what is called "plain text" format as before. Likewise, if
you are able to use these digests without difficulty but simply prefer the
plain text format used before, then drop me a line OFF LIST using the same
address below and ask me to return your digest to "plain text" format. As
another option you may want to try list mode, and receive your list posts
immediately as they come in rather than wait for your digest up to 24 hours
later.
If you are having no difficulty reading or using the current digests this
way, then there is no need to reply or let me know. I try very hard to
reply to all correspondence from subscribers, but sometimes replying to
everyone is simply not always feasible.
