HTML Posting

[Mark C. Miller-2]

I notice that when I get replies to messages, the text of my message is
quoted as HTML text.  I know that HTML is a no-no, but I can't find any
place in my newsreader (Pan) to choose text (either HTML or plain text).

Can someone confirm for me that my posts include HTML?  One alternative
that I have thought of is that the newsreader in someway is linked to the
preferences of my mail program (Evolution).  Another possibility I can
think of is that the person replying is sending in HTML, and my text is
being "converted" by their mailer.

Thanks.

This message does not seem to have HTML.

I would suspect the person replying is using html.  I filter all HTML mail
to the bit bucket and you mails make it through just fine. :)

Looks fine here - Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

Must be the people sending you the replies.

No HTML here either. BTW, this was received using Claws-Mail 3.7.2, as
I do not know how to received the list using Pan (see my thread
"Receiving List In Pan?")

Responding to a more than one-month old post and referring to an even older
thread, that has long since gone from my server, isn't likely to get you
much help.

fwiw, pan just needs to be configured to connect to news.gmane.org - this
list is gmane.linux.ubuntu.user.

Since I got your message it does NOT have HTML or my my K-mail would have
moved it to it's right place, the trash< and I would never have seen it.

A more likely explanation and since I did not see the replies,  ...ah well,
people who post html never have anything intelligent to say anyway.  They
just like to use 3 meg of bandwidth to send their two lines of nonsense is
all.
