It is a very good thing that your mailer filters or blocks control codes or you would pass your troubles on to other Net users. =================================================================== WARNING ==================================================================== PLEASE do *NOT* post Colour, Color, Control or Animation Codes to ASCII-ART newsgroups - or indeed ANY Internet newsgroup. It can cause an awful lot of trouble on Net systems worldwide. If you wish to post Raw Code then UUENCODE it first ! Colour & Color Control Codes in subject titles and headers should be avoided entirely. ==================================================================== Please do NOT post Colour & Color Control Codes in message headers and titles. The problems are due to some Net software recognising the Raw Code as commands which make the software do unwanted things and can even cause a system to crash. This message is being reposted frequently because many newcomers to the Net do not seem to know the problems caused by Control Codes. ====================================================================
