Robin,

It is not my intention to waste anyone's time, which is why I explained
this problem about two or three weeks ago. If you had read the messages
posted to the list you would be aware of such problems.

I do not appreciate your sarcastic tone nor your arrogant remarks in
regards to how others send their email and what shows up on your screen
particularly since they were spoken out of ignorance, referencing an issue
that has already been resolved to the best of our abilities. Should you wish to pose
a question, I believe that we would all be more than happy to answer it to the best of our
abilities. However, if a question is asked in a smart-assed, sarcastic manner
do not be alarmed if the response you receive is not as favorable as you would like.

Mime encoded mail is certainly a standard and will remain as such. I do not have
the capabilities to use a UNIX editor such as Pine or ELM as our mail server is on
the NT platform. I use Microsoft's Outlook product for my mail as I am required to
do so by my place of employment. If there is a fix for this "problem" that someone
knows about, please let me know. There are a couple of things that I know of:

1) Do not use the reply button, always send a "new message"
2) Do not use the Autosignature function

In the last couple of days, I've been in a bit of a hurry, because of my workload, to respond
to the list and may have inadvertently made a mistake and "replied to" a message. I apologize
if this has caused a problem. I will do the best I can to insure that this doesn't happen again,
but I am only human and will make mistakes from time to time. If there is a question as
to whether or not a posting of mine contains an attachment, or anything else for that matter,
please direct all questions to me personally and I will gladly answer them.

Thanks to the list for their patience, but I'm limited to using this mail client. If there's something
else I can do, please don't hesitate to let me know. Talk to you all soon and have a great day.

Regards,
Michael Norsworthy
