[MR] Off-Topic: Held Messages

[Kendrick Wayfarer]

Greetings everyone,

For those of you who keep wondering why your posts don't
immediately go to the Merry Rose and instead are held with
"Message has a suspicious header", make sure you are sending
as plain text only.  Don't send your messages in HTML.  Don't
attach pictures.  Don't attach documents.  The first one
will get your message held by the list software, the last
two will get your message rejected.

For those of you who may not know how to make sure you're
sending messages in plain text, Alanna discovered a fabulous
website with instructions on how to set just about any e-mail
program out there to send messages in plain text.  That
website is:

and it will be going into the Frequently Asked Questions
just as soon as I can get a free moment. :-)

In service,
Lord Kendrick Wayfarer
Listkeeper, Merry Rose
