Janet, oh-dear-Cyber-sis-of-mine.... I have no doubt it's my software (Microsoft's Outlook Express 5.0), which is set to the most generic, simple, vanilla text" setting. All other settings regarding email have been set to the most plain generic settings -both for incoming and outgoing messages 'cause it takes my Parkie-eyes so darn long to adjust to any changes in fonts, background, fancy-schmancy designs, etc.. I imagine that if I phoned Microsoft's tech support line they could step me thru formatting my email program to eliminate any undesirable (to me, anyway) settings, but I just plain don't wanna spend $20 or more sitting on hold for a half an hour paying long distance phone rates just to get my email program tweaked for one or two relatively minor problems (in the grand scheme of things) I figured that with 1800 List members, SOMEONE would be able to come up with a quick-fix and that would be the end of it.
