Ginny,
The reason the postings come this way to you, is because no matter what
Brian at RootsWeb has asked, folks still refuse to quit using HTML type
e-mail instead of plain text. When they feel it is cute and neat to send
their "WHITE" backround email, it shows up on AOL and a few others as red.
This problem can be fixed when we all use plain text. This is one of the
reasons that shortly all mail not sent in plain text will be rejected by
RootsWeb. I look forward to this day, as being a list maintainer on three
other lists, when all mail is at the same level of easiness to read. When
all our letters come to us the same.
