Sidibeh,
 
Again, thanks. I don't use outlook express. However, with my AOL service, I  
know I have an option to choose a permanent setting  to send out my  emails as 
plain text instead of in HTML format. I have come across this in  my system 
but forget where but I will find it I am sure.
In the meantime, I was not going to alter the format only for individual  
mails I send out. I will simply do this for all mails I post to G-L for now  
until I find the option to change it in my system. I seem to have this  problem 
only with mail posted to the L since none of the people I  correspond with 
individually have had this problem with my mails. I did find out  from AOL that I 
can simply alter the mail I send to G-L and it will correct the  problem for 
those who were receiving my mails as blanks while at the  same time it will not 
affect list recipients who never had the  problem with my mails. At least that 
is what AOL confirmed and let us see if  they are right.
Many thanks.
 
Rgds,
Jabou Joh

Sister  Jabou,

Sorry that no one could get back to yoy as quickly. AOL support  is probably 
right about the format you send these messages in, even if the  problem can 
have other causes. However, I would advise that instead of  simply altering 
the format for individual mails, you can chnage the  configuration for all 
mails you post so as to avoid the problem recurring.  If you are running 
Outlook Express, choose Options from the Tools menu.  Click on the Send tab 
and choose Unformated text from the "email message  format" alternative. 
Click the latter's configuration butoon and choose  MIME.

The configuration for outlook 2003 is even easier. I hope this  helps.

good morning,
sidibeh
