Mike,
I get these same multiple e-mails (posts) all the time, one from the list, one
from
the sender. Some discussed this a while back, but was not over the same subject.
I think it was over some being in HTML and some plain text. I don't ever
complain,
there's a delete key, and they never bother me in the least.
Sincerely,
Will
