What I want either you or Sarah Day to do, or indeed anyone, is write down a list of the NAMES of the Usenet newsgroups which accept and encourage the posting of HTML in discussion groups. Veronica has said that HTML causes flames if posted in alt.binaries.* newsgroups or alt.html which I thought may be willing to accept them...but apparently the readers in those newsgroups object to HTML postings just as strongly as other newsgroups object to HTML in those groups. So I repeat...put-up a list of the NAMES of the Usenet newsgroups which currently accept and encourage HTML postings or if you do not have any names of newsgroups then shut-up! Bye,
