You can't tell in a usenet-message how another client should render your code (unless you use html, but that is evil). Do you mean something like the #v+ and #v- marks? If I recall correctly, No Gnus supports them, like #v+ code... #v- But not many clients support this (afaik slrn does). > Any help or hints appreciated. Tom
