Those who have upgraded to IE 4.0 be careful. They have defaulted to HTML format for mail and plain text for news groups. I was reading the defaults under the options menu, saw the 'plain text' selected for news groups and didn't automatically make the distinction between the newsgroups and email. To change the default go to the tools menu and choose options. Choose the the send tab and make sure the radio button next to 'Plain Text' is chosen under 'Mail sending format' then click 'Apply' at the bottom and 'OK' This should help a lot of the problems with the list servers and digest mode.
