A lot of great messages get rejected from sust-mar for a very unfortunate
reason -- wrong email format.

Only messages in PLAIN TEXT format can go out to our 300 readers. That
means no HTML, no rich text, etc. You might not even realise you are using
html in your email. If you get a rejection slip back from sust-mar, that
is almost always the reason. 

SOLUTION: check the Format pull-down menu or otherwise figure out how to
resend in plain text.

FAQ: why don't I just get off my high horse and post the %$^& message?
ANSWER: Problem is messages with html create problems for many readers.
Our (100) digest readers will just get gibberish (a lot of it) if messages
with html go through to the list.

It wasn't the Exxon Valdez captain's driving that caused the Alaskan oil
spill. It was ours.
