I am not trying to point the finger at Dan or anyone else. It's 
probably a problem with Pegasus Mail, or perhaps with my own mail 
reader (cc:Mail Mobile for Windows 6.22). For the sake of anyone who 
is trying to track down the problem, I have appended here the start of 
Dan's message as I received it. The attached filename is text.rtx, not 
rtf, and this is not RTF format. It looks a bit like HTML but it is 
not readable in Internet Explorer. This clearly indicates an attempt 
at colour and at different sizes of text, but that is not the whole 
problem. Does anyone else receive similar text?

I wonder if Pegasus mail has a setting, as Outlook Express has, that 
plain text E-mail only should be sent to certain addresses. If so it 
would help to use that setting for b-hebrew.

Mine should not have been that way.. it was a simple reply..

using Pegasus Mail.

The only thing I can think of is that some of the lines were "colored 
text"

Maybe the post was too long and Pegasus tried to attach.

I will RE-send it with "black text only"

But before I do.. is anybody else having this problem with my posts 
?
