Should we all switch to "plain text".....
(someone who doesn't post sent me an email suggesting this...he only reads the Archives............)

I guess we would lose wiki pics and such?

But worth it for clarity of words, yes?

I think this is what is produced when someone sends a post to the
WASTE server in "rich text" format instead of "plain text."

But more and more messages lately seem to be coming through with more and more garbage characters like =, two-digit numbers and other annoyances in them, and line-breaks in the middles of words. Some approach being more trouble than they are worth to read, and some are literally unreadable--_all_ garbage. I'd think it was because of some setting in my mail reader, but the messages in the archive are junked up too. Am I the only one with a low threshold?  Anyone have a solution?
