Hi guys - FYI -- Rootsweb has installed a SmartList hack that actually blocks file attachments (including VCARDS), HTML messages and enriched text postings. It will be important for subscribers to know how their mail programs work and if they embed attachments (such as "business that typically have names like "attribs.bnd" or "VCARD"). When a poster sends a message to a mailing list written in HTML, or with a non-plain-text attached file, the list server will send the poster's message back to them, with a note at the bottom explaining the plain-text requirement at RootsWeb. This means your message did NOT post to the list. This change is not currently something the listowner can turn on and off. Attachments will be blocked from every list. If you have a question about whether your messages are going out in HTML format, take a look at http://www.rootsweb.com/rootsweb/listowners/html-off.htm. This will guide you in making sure things on your end are alright. Have a good one, Jen [email protected] http://www.mindspring.com/~jbawden/index.html "Life moves pretty fast.
