[Sunhelp] more off topic ramblings... [was vxconfigd error & rootdg canot be imported during b oot]

[Will Mc Donald]

Heh, fair enough. I was far from upset and it is a valid point. :)

On a side note, Outlook Express (and I'm hoping Outlook) has on "Option" in
the "Send" tab, "Reply to Messages in the format in which they were sent".
If you can find it in Outlook, and if it's checked, try unchecking it and
it'll default back to plain text.

HTH

Will.

I suppose despise may be strong for this mailing list, but not for others. I
know a good portion of the OpenBSD mailist members will just as soon cut off
your head and %#@% on your neck for using html. I stopped counting how many
times I've been chewed out for it.
It's more a limitation of the Outlook client I suppose. Even though I select
plain text as my default mail format, if you respond to a message Outlook 97
& 2000 automatically use the same format as the original message (which is
why my response went out with html).
Personally I prefer RTF formatting, but I was trying to make a point
(poorly) that a courteous list member would use plain text. I'm as guilty as
anyone on that one. That was also meant to be a direct reply, so I apologize
if I upset anyone. Hitting reply on all my other lists sends to the poster,
not the list...so I didn't check it first.
