The first line triggers a but in some MicroSoft email programs
(outlook? outlook express? I forget). The third line obviously
triggers other bugs.
I'm not sure I appreciate people who go out of their way to cause bugs
any more than I appreciate seeing these warning messages being sent to
the list.
Isn't it ironic that they complain about <iframe yet in their own
message they include that same insignificant string of characters?
Yes, if you try and respond and tell them it's a bit dumb it bounces
again.
Now, if I did send HTML messages and then actually used such a tag,
then it is something I should be thinking about.
What's next: Am I forbidden to start my email with "MZ" just because
some program thinks it is smarter than the sender (which specified
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
and not
Content-Type: application/binary
) so it should execute it as an executable?
There are all sorts of people putting up anti-spam barriers recommended
by others that are really dumb. This is simply another one of these
tools where the developer assumes something that is not generally true.
cheers,
Alex

Thought for the day:
I like to leave messages *before* the beep.
