This could be anti virus or spam software removing the HTML before
delivering the message to you. HTML e-mail is strongly associated with a
message being spam and some viruses and worms can be spread be HTML e-mails.

A pain, but a reason to only post in plain text.

| Does the "URL" notation mean that the 'attachment.htm' is visible on the
| archives?
|
| Just a WAG, but is this a result of using HTML email to post to the list?
| An inevitable result?
