Subject: The posting of HTML format messages to this List!!!!
Date: Tue, 11 Jun 2002 09:43:02 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3D053986.8010303@ozemail.com.au> (raw)

Hi,

I am mainly a lurker, I just read posts to keep abreast of iptables 
/netfilter...

BUT Am getting increasingly irritated by people posting HTML encoded 
messages to this list. I am sure I am not alone.

Since I have subscribed to the daily "message digest", I get summaries 
of the traffic. Any HTML encoded messages makes a short message three 
times as long, with html JUNK all through the digest.

I used to just filter out any email with html tags in it-- anyone that 
sends me html encoded messgaes is usually either a spammer or someone I 
don't want to hear from anyway....If I left it filtered then I'd receive 
1 out of 5 netfilter message digests....because of the html.

If anyone reads this, can you please just take the very brief moment to 
TURN OFF html encoding for your messages ?? Please ???

Cheers,
Michael
