Okay, I hereby apologize for this and any other problems I caused with that
besides the one already brought to my attention (which I reapologize for if
it needs another one!)

Please do not use HTML mail. I saw the following:

.i ma valsi ti la lojban. .i mi kucli le lojbo valsi

Did I ask that right? I'm wondering how to say 'fractal' in lojban. BTW,
isn't it nonphonemic since we can't pronounce .. to have it possible in
lojban.?

and thought at first that "ti" was referring to the MIME coding, then was
puzzled by the reference to the fractal. Then I saw in the HTML code the
following:
«
<DIV><IMG src="cid:580474001@12062001-1e87"></DIV>
»
There is no such protocol, to my knowledge, as "cid:". Then you attached
some
file called "Outlook.bmp" which is 750 kilobytes, which expands to 1
megabyte
in base 64 code. An HTML document CANNOT refer to an image in the same file;
it
can only refer to an image in a separate file.

Do not use HTML mail.

Do not send huge files to a mailing list.

Do not send BMP or PNM (including PGM, PBM, PPM) files by email without
compressing them.

Got it?
