Formatting

Apologies for the poor readability of my post on shot birds. I don’t know why the formatting I wrote it in didn’t work. ===============================

    That one’s paragraphs look ok, but of those three email formats, Rich Text is the one I’ve had most trouble with in the past.

    If the problems continue, perhaps try Plain Text or, if you want to be able to format the text, HTML.

    Thanks for the responses

    If it’s coming through alright for others, then that’s the main thing!

    Peter, I just use Hotmail, it says Rich Text on the format choice (the others are Plain Text and Edit in HTML)

    Cheers,

    John

    What program are you using to create them? Do you know if you’re creating them in Plain Text, HTML or RTF formats?

    I think the list server might strip out HTML formatting, so perhaps that’s the culprit if your email program is relying on fomatting codes rather than actual carriage returns.

    On a completely unrelated note – for a while now e-mails I send to Birding-Aus come back to me as a single lump of text with all paragraphs etc. gone. Do my e-mails come through to everyone else like that? If so, any ideas on what’s going on and how I can solve it? John ===============================

    John,

    I have been receiving your posts clearly. I know that other mailing lists are having problems with emails to/from members who use Hotmail. Perhaps a switch to another more reliable email provider would be the answer.
