[NJARC] text test from Texas + and others ...

[John Dilks K2TQN]

To all at NJARC concerned.

It appears that some are using email programs that are not sending in 
plain text.  (See Joe Devonshire's message - last below.)

Please check your configuration settings and select something that 
looks like plain text, or in Joe's case "Compose as Plain Text."   Do 
not choose HTML.  (You may need some expert help.  See if you can 
find someone who lives near you.)

There is a reason for plain text, as formatted text (HTML) can hide 
viruses and other, worse, programs that infiltrate your 
computers.  Most of us do not have any problems, so the few that do 
have the problem will need to correct their program settings, or 
perhaps use another program for sending email to NJARC.

If anyone has solutions, please send them to our email reflector so 
everyone can read them.

73, John
