I am not this list's administrator, but having some of my own, I recognize the reason for the MIME messages is that someone is FORWARDING long messages through to the list. Cut and Paste is a better option. (Better still, don't forward or cut and paste messages TO the list that had come from the list - check your headers.) Many mailing lists cannot handle forward and/or attachments. Claire Wichelmann goodwich@ix.netcom.com County Coordinator Newton County MOGENWEB project: http://www.rootsweb.com/~monewton/newton.html
