Hi Rick,

Can I suggest that, with NY Times, LA Times or Washington Post articles, you copy and paste just the substantive article itself (keeping the italics and "Related Links/ Headlines" if possible) and excise all the other "fruit salad" (eg, links to other sections of the newspaper; to "Subscriptions", etc) that is on the website version.

My mail program  (Eudora) automatically converts text and HTML attachments into the body of the e-mail itself, so if someone posts me a saved HTML file I get a very rich e-mail with two or three columns, lots of bold and hyperlink text, etc -- and usually 5-10 times the size of the same message after I re-forward it to myself with the non-essential content edited out! Regards, Tom.

 David Lublin reports that when I post entire news articles to the list (as opposed to simply the link to the article), his computer sometimes crashes. Others have told me that they prefer that I post the entire article.  If anyone else has suffered problems similar to David's problem, please send me a private message letting me know about it.
Thanks.
Rick
