You seem to have missed the point entirely. Attachments (as my PGP=20
signature) are at least marginally useful. Things like the HTML that
was attached to your posting (which I did not see since my MUA is smart
enough to shield me) are not. These two "attachments" are not in the same=
=20
category.
> Attachments etc are a pain in the ****
Only in the wrong hands. And since you sent me mail earler (directly)
telling me to fix my ways (which I politely told you I would not do),
and then took the issue to to list and got the same response, I can only
say one thing: read my signature.
Now, I recommend you install FreeBSD and start reading your mail using
something that does not do suprising things to the user.
AlanC {and since you told me in private mail you would not be reading
anything else from me due to the "attachment" of the PGP sig,
this may all be in vain}
