Just a note to keep you all from worrying too much.

I set a policy some time ago that nothing except plain text would be allowed
on Klarinet. I strip out HTML, any images, sound files, binary attachments,
etc. before they ever get out to the public. There's always a chance that
something will get through (Happy99.exe got out once because I didn't strip
out uuencoded attachments - I do now) but all in all I'm happy I instituted
the policy. It makes life a bit harder if you want to send pictures or
sounds out - let me know if you do and I can set up an autoresponder on
Sneezy - but I think it's the right way to do things on a mailing list.

Cheers,
