Hewitt's latest post was an original - not re-quoted - and it is unwrapped. My access to the forum is via email and Eudora is my email program. I have noted that starting on the 10th of January this year, NavList messages are coming through in Courier New font, instead of the default Arial font that Eudora is set up to use for every other email. (I figured that perhaps Frank had done something clever here as Courier New is an equal-spaced font developed for typewriters. This means that tables and other space sensitive formatting that always get screwed up can be preserved if everyone is forced to use Courier New font. But that probably isn't correct.... :-() Anyway, there seems to be some formatting commands that are embedded in NavList messages which was not there before. For what it is worth.... Geoffrey
