[WinMac] Re: WinMac Digest List viewing; stopping eMail virii

        Dennis,

        It's not indicated in your mail header whether you are using Eudora Pro
for Mac or windows. Also, are you using Eudora Pro 3.0.5 (win)/3.1.3 (mac);
or Eudora Pro 4.x?

        Also, I recommend receiving all of your list mail in individual form, as
opposed to digest form; then using the Filter feature of Eudora Pro to
route the traffic into individual mailboxes. This way, it's a LOT easier to
follow given threads. [BTW, I manage the Mac-NT list, which is hosted by
www.onelist.com, and they have a tendency to mangle digests when viewed in
a Web browser.]

        Receiving eMail in individual form also makes it easier to track down
rogue files that slip through the cracks. Marc set LetterRip up to strip
attachments; and it DID bounce various attachments I threw at it as a test
(after another listserv sent me HAPPY99.EXE as an attachment).

        Lastly, take a look at the attachment disclaimer in my .SIG below: This
way, *IF* my machine becomes infected at least the recipient has a
"heads-up" that I did not attach anything.

        Cheers!
        Dan
