DEAR LIST AND LIST MINDERS,
If there is one thing I hate more than attachments sent to the list it
is e-mails that automatically start up your connection to the ISP. There
was one message that I received today that I was so busy trying to delete
that I didn't even catch the name but it was about UV exposure so I assumed
it was sent to the list.
Even after I deleted it, it repeatedly activated my dial up mechanism no
matter how many times I tried to cancel it and I had to re-boot my computer
to stop it.
PLEASE inform the individual responsible that it is INAPPROPRIATE to
send attachments or these automatic connect commands to the list. Giving
the person benefit of the doubt I will assume that his/her intentions were
good but I feel we would all like the opportunity to choose to connect or
not! Simply send an imbedded URL that we can click on IF WE CHOOSE!
Thanks in advance to the list minders.
CHEERS!
BOB KISS
