[vcf-midatlantic] Can you see me?

[Herb Johnson]

I read the list from the lists.v..c..f.org Web site, with an old version 
of Firefox Web browser. I am of course registered to the list but I have 
turned off email sends to me. This email was from my email client and 
constructed with correct To: and subject: "by hand". Never mind why I do 
this.

When I read on my Web browser, Tony Bogan's email message, Wed Nov 4 
14:44:51 CET 2015, from the v...c..f site, my Web browser shows the 
usual previous/next/messages sorted stuff, the subject line and so on. 
The body of the message is only

An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
URL: <so and so/attachment.html> [as active link]

Upon clicking the link above, my browser does NOT show an HTML document, 
it shows the text content of the HTML document with of course HTML tags.

Now, oddly enough, when I download that HTML document and save it as a 
plain-text file with an HTML extension; and then "click" the file to 
display it under my same Web browser; the browser accepts the HTML tags 
and processes the HTML tags.

I make no comments as I'm not qualified. Others with more knowledge can 
do what I've done as a diagnostic if it's useful. And of course one can 
access the lists.v..c..f.org Web site to see messages, some of which 
they may not have received by email.
