I thought the listowners were supposed to send in plain text. Is there anything I can do about it? Carol Carol- It isn't the lists that add the =20 and other codes to the emails. They are in plain text. AOL's email program adds this in some cases. The =20 marks line breaks that shouldn't show but sometimes they do and I know of no way to avoid them as long as you are using AOL's email program. Joan
