oh joy

another digest full of repeated messages cos people
can't be bothered deleting previous comments.

While I realise this may be a help to slower members
of hwg I personally do not need to be reminded of the
entire thread with every message. 

Please do something about this - its the one thing
about the hwg lists that really annoys me.... - surely
I can't be the only one that hates reading the same
message over and over again.

btw what the hell have html and email got to do with
melissa and ILOVEYOU - either of them would have
worked the same with plain text email. My 10 cents on
the matter is that people who prefer plain text emails
for speed - fine! I have several accounts some of
which are set to plain text, some to full html ,
depending on how many emails I expect to receive in
each of them. Do us all a favour and drag yourself
kicking and screaming into the new millenium and make
use of the new technology - rather than running scared
of it. HTML email has a lot to offer - I seem to
remember a similar debate when the web was still in
its infancy - surely the net is about sharing
information, not showing pictures.....
