When rape unavoidable, lie back, enjoy -- "Confucius" I agree wholeheartedly with you on the HTML issue. However MIME seems to be here to stay and the trouble is that once you get a mail program that understands Q-P *and* does what you want in general, it is often impossible to keep it from sending Q-P out. Note that even when programs try not to Q-P unnecessarily, things like space at EOL, or TAB characters, or "From" in pos.1 will make for "unsafe transfers" and prompt Q-P to be used. I've been just as peeved about this as you are, and sooner or later, some FORTRAN programmer *will* initialize a variable to 30 instead of 1 (X=3D1), but really, the path of least resistance seems to be to just "go with the flow" and get yourself a mailer that handles MIME. -- O__ ---- Peter Dalgaard Blegdamsvej 3 c/ /'_ --- Dept. of Biostatistics 2200 Cph.
