Appreciate it Mike.  This should be plain text.

Actually, that message was not in text; it was still HTML. In general,
HTML
is frowned up on mailing lists, for the reasons cited. However, you can
usually easily configure HTML to be displayed using w3m or links or
similar
HTML console based app. that's what I do, under mutt, and what I needed
to
do to view your post.

Your posts, however, are a bit different. :-) Most times, an HTML post
has 2
parts - the HTML version, and an accompanying plain text version. When I
use
a console based mailer, I look at the plain text version. Yours
have no plain text version, tho - it only comes as "text/html", and has
no
plain text version accompanying it.

I suggest trying that plain text only option again.
