RE: Note to the list

["Duff, Ian" <IDuff@charter.com>]

Before you anti-MIME propeller-heads get your shorts in too fine a knot,
you might want to consider the fact that some of us have no control over
how our messages appear. We have a little problem called an MIS dept
that keeps control of message format. If you can let us know how to ease
your problem, let us know, otherwise, give it a break.
