[Ham-Computers] Re: Blocking incoming HTML-based mail?

[John Burch]

Hi Doc:

I will forward your information to the station who originally
asked me the question.  Apparently his ISP does no mail
filtering, so we were discussing ways to block the HTML-
based stuff.

I haven't fooled with Mozilla yet, and your comments regarding
Linux are welcomed.  That is my next challenge after we get
moved later this month.  It's time to leave this M$ stuff and
all of it's problems behind.

Thanks again for the suggestion!
