Empty messages sometimes happen when the message is sent using HTML - If you
are using Outlook or Outlook express then click on Format on the menu bar
and then click on plain text before writing your message. This should ensure
that it arrives with us as it left you.

Rootsweb long ago realised that viruses can't live in plain text they need
the coding of HTML so they set up their mail servers to work with plain
text.

I don't really understand it I am just quoting the stuff I was told eleven
years ago when I first became a list admin.
