Hi Glenn, I know it doesn't look like it, but I always convert messages (that have "tables" and other things I want to remain in alignment) to Courier before I send them, including the message that got so messed up. I used to use Thunderbird for my e-mail, and messages sent in courier and with aligned columns remained that way when amsat-bb re-sent them. Nowadays I have been using Yahoo Mail because it's almost as good and it takes no space on my solid state drive. The problem started when I switched over to Yahoo Mail and I don't know why. What are RFCs? In my world RFC stands for Rugby Football Club :-) 73, KenVE3HLS

If the sender would use a mono spaced font (courier) the formatting would remain. There is something to be said for following the RFCs. HTML and other fancy techniques have no place in messages. That is what text is for. 73 Glenn
