Two problems are causing havoc with our lists' readability/usefulness:
(1) What causes =20, =B7, =FA etc. to appear at the end of lines, start of
lines, or after an indent at the start of a line? Just as importantly,
how can Joe/Jo User solve this problem or prevent it if say they're
causing it by pulling external material into the message? Setting up test
list(s) hasn't worked yet.
(2) What causes the user to send out a message, seemingly innocent,
(usually with an attachment initially), but to get gibberish results?
Again how to solve & prevent? Attachment (gibberish) appears in body. Body
often has the =20 =FA gibberish. Example:
[Headers]
Body ...
[Headers e.g. "Boundary..."/"Application"/"Attachment"/ "<filename>"/
"...encoding"]

[more gibberish]
["Boundary"]
A search of 2+ years of Lsoft archives (details available) produced one
semi-useful post. Other listowner list(s) engaged in childish flame wars
and were dropped.
Thanks in advance,
