Your message looked fine. The above was all on one line though, total 79
characters, the longest line in your message. "Awesome link page!" was on a line
by itself. Until I looked back at some other messages, I thought that egroups
must take whatever we send and wrap it at 80, both to display online and to send
back. But most have shorter lines.
I found by my silly test that tables will work, if all the info is on one line.
Where I tabbed over underneath to make a second line in one or the other column,
it got very messy.
None of this is a problem except for those mysterious occasions when the text
gets so fragmented that it's hard to read.

I agree that John Kohnen's work is awesome, and like Craig O'Donell's, which is
similarly an unparalleled great pleasure to enjoy, appears to be done for the
love of it only.

Awesome link page!
I introduced a friend to it and it was three days later before he came up for

Thanks for the replies. I actually had it off at my end but in the
egroup prefs had on. That page was interesting, even if it mostly covers
Outlook Express. Others take note I have NS47 & Macintosh and the color
graphic email works fine otherwise...
Sorry, but I can't resist a silly test (view at full width):
Marks's Bad Luck Boats
Design State Outcome Share Responsibility With
Featherwind No Bottom Flattened while Personally lucky (uninjured)
Drunken Driver
parked in tow.
Otter II Planks & Frames Only Had to move, Ronald Reagan
gave away.
DD 13 A mess Pancake look Cheap plywood
Redesigned Recut above Still have it. George's little unpublished
book offers a
George Radzykewycz neat way to size a flattie kayak to suit.
14' Kayak
Windsprint Electrified Free at Last! Thanks, Phil. I need you.
Scram Pram Planning Garage just Discover Card, AT&T, Citibank et al.
big enough.
You can tell I'm still a beginner at this 'cause I haven't smashed my
thumb yet.

"Necessity is the mother of invention" is a silly proverb.
"Necessity is the mother of futile dodges" is much nearer the truth.

Ahoy!
I guess I could send some silly test messages to find this out, but then
there's no deleting them. Does anyone know if our mail programs should
be set to send HTML, or not?
Often the lines get broken differently than when composed and tabs for
simple tables that look square to me get progressively worse when
forwarded and copied.
Thanks,
Mark
