E-mail attachments...

Evening all,

        Sorry for this additional wastage, however, in order to improve my
participation in the DML, I'd like to clear my name (It's Bill Gates fault, damnit) in regards to my e-mails. I AM using Microsoft Outlook, which has the wonderful design of distributing e-mails in Rich Text Format. So it takes the basic text, which you all get, and adds things like linefeeds / CR, fonts, colors etc into the attachment. Any other MS e-mail package can then read
these items, and display the appropriate bells and whistles. It also seems
to have this nasty habit of not inserting line feeds (though on my display it does...) into the message. So everybody is probably sick of getting one
extremely long sentence in each of my e-mails... I'm working on a solution,
which may just be ditch Outlook in favor of Eudora Pro. Thanks for the
patience, and now, something esoteric about my Dakota to justify this
post.... How about, "I LOVE THIS TRUCK!". There, I've said it.

Pat Buthmann
