[massive wad of html deleted]

Hi Brent-

PLEASE do not ever post an *entire* huge web page to the list again! That
enormous mail full of html code just filled up an entire issue of the
Looper's Delight digest version. 400 lines, 22KB worth of nothin!

I'm guessing you have no idea what you did wrong. Probably you'll get
flamed by a few digest readers for it, but in case it's not clear: All you
need to do is paste the url into a mail. You don't send the whole page. It
just takes 2-3 lines of text to do it, doesn't get anyone pissed off at
you, and doesn't reveal to the world that you're a brand new internet user
still using the dreaded Microsoft Outlook Express.

thanks,
kim
