When I got love-hounds-digest Digest V13 #255 the
header said:

But only Lane Stephenson's message appeared, with
the rest truncated. I noticed that the last part of
Lane's post was an HTML copy of itself.
Did the HTML-code comfuse the pseudo-moderator,
or my mailserver?

Did anyone else but me get their digest this way?

And could everyone posting here PLEASE make sure that
their own messages don't come as HTML, or encrypted in
similar ways. Some of us do not use Netscape or Explorer
to read news and mail, and our readers might get pretty 
comfused... if not ourselves.
(What if there's a poor bastard only using a VT-100 
terminal, like I did in the beginning... I feel sorry
for that person.)

If someone has the Digest intact, could that one please 
mail me an offer to send it to me?

Music is like vintage wine. It keeps getting better over the years,
