Just a quick note to let you know what's happening. HTML emails are being blocked mainly because I just don't have the time to deal with them at the moment. I've got some code, which I'm going to put in place as soon as I have the chance, which will automatically filter them out. Many other lists operate this policy.

If you can bear with us for the meantime, it'd be much appreciated. If you are having problems posting from work you can always use one of the web-based email systems such as hotmail or yahoo, which allow you to send plain text emails. Just a thought.

Thanks for bearing with us.
