However they are not rare. Your results are the same as mine. At work there are many people using Outlook under MS Windows for sending mail. The output from that program can make any HTML coder cry, it is just horrible what comes out. Unfortunately they are very common mailers and I still wanted to use Gnus. I ended up writing my own washing function, that removed all the HTML tags and reformatted the buffer, but I wasn't relly happy with it. Sometimes it screwed up with paragraph formatting and things like that so I tested W3. W3 worked very well until I installed and upgraded to new versions of Emacs and gnus. Suddenly W3 became extremely picky with what it accepted and choked on mail that it has previously rendered pretty okay. So I tried Lynx. It did not work much better. I got the advice to try Links and it works well. It swallows any HTML mail I throw at it and I am quite happy with it, though some things don't look as nice in links as they do in w3, I am not bothered, emails usually don't have too many advanced features in them. -- AA #769 ICQ: 1645566 Yahoo: Ichimusai AOL: Ichimusai1972 MSN: Ichimusai IRC: Ichimusai#AmigaSWE@IRCnet URL: http://www.ichimusai.org/ "| <-- You must be smarter than this stick to ride the Internet." -- Screwtape, alt.fan.douglas-adams
