No I'm not going to retype the subject

I have the same attitude, WHY do people think we would even want to see a fancy schmancy version of what they typed as simple ASCII text, especially when many of us read this list on simple ASCII terminals anyway so we can't see any of the colors or misaligned columns. It's especially annoying when a message contains the same text twice, once as text and once as HTML, so at least half of the message is useless to *everyone*. I would *love* it if list servers could be set up to filter this crap out, or at the very least run the HTML text through Lynx or something and translate it back to usable 80-column ASCII. FWIW I'm not crazy about the new header format, when I replied to this msg with "R" (I'm using Berkeley Mail) it would have gone to Allison only, and when I changed to "r", the mailing list was only there as a Cc:, if I had edited out the other recipients there would have been *no* primary recipient, only a Cc:. And that's certainly not what we want! This problem comes up on every mailing list, maybe it would make sense to define an X-Foo: header that gives the mailing list address and hack the popular mailers to have a "reply to mailing list" command? Or has this already been done and I'm just oblivious as usual? Of course this wouldn't help Windows users running canned mailers with no source code available, but what can I say, shame on you!!! :-) John Wilson D Bit
