Go to http://groups.yahoo.com/mygroups/amigactive and click on "Delivery
options". Change the setting to plain text emails.

Have you just joined this list? It's normal when you join a list to not
understand all conversations. Some of us have been on the same lists for
years. It's the same when you walk into a new pub, you can't expect to
understand everything that's said.

That's why the "seven day lurk" rule came about. After joining a mailing
list or newsgroup, it's best to just read messages for a week. It saves
you upsetting people or making a pr@ of yourself.

You don't have to be cool to be in here. We even allow Windows users, and
you can't get any more uncool :)

That's OK, we've got more than enough of our own :0
