Update - blank msgs, etc.
Everyone, My sense is the blank message problem started when I enabled the option to strip HTML, etc. (even though my early test disproved it partially). As another test, I un-did the "strip HTML" option just now. Let's see if that makes the blank messages problem go away. If so, then anyone whose mail clients can't handle HTML format will have to make changes on their ends (sorry)....

Or we can find a better mailing list manager that actually works for everyone instead of settling for something that only works for 'most' of the users we have. I've heard a suggestion or two from other members, maybe ask everyone for what everyone suggests. I personally have had no problems with the new mailing list but I dislike it when I've heard that someone received my post in their spam folder... Defeats the point of a mailing list if only some of the people actually receive the posts...

You mean a product that makes all the people happy all the time? Such product does not exist.

That is the easiest thing to fix. People need to whitelist the vintagecomputerfederation.org domain.
Still got a blank message (.eml thing) from Tony. I am concluding that the HTMl vs. plain text issue is wholely unrelated to the blank message issue. Will wait to hear back from the list company before I make any other changes.

You've been asking people to make a new email just for the list if theirs doesn't work. This seems to be pushing the problem you are having finding a good mail manager onto the members of the group to find a new email provider. That is the easiest thing to fix. People need to whitelist the vintagecomputerfederation.org domain. This is only one of the many problems this list has been having in the last couple of days, you know this.
