Here is a clue to be checked out: > >There are 54 messages totalling 1403 lines in this issue. Some email systems have limits of the length of received messages. A thousand lines seems to a common value for the limit on those systems that have limits. It would be nice if the systems that cut off messages at 1000 lines added a note explaining that the message exceeded the limit, but I don't think many of them do. We have all of our digests set to size limits of 1000 lines and I haven't heard of any problems. This is the line in our list header: * Digest= Yes,Same,Daily,00:30,size(1000) It is possible that there is some other problem, but I think it is unlikely that it was a control character in the middle of the text. I have seen some strange things happen to messages with control characters in them, but I don't think this is one of them. Peace, Dan << Daniel D.
