Hah, I wondered why these snarky replies quoting nothing were showing up. I saw the text from Jonathan, so I was confused :) It would be cool if the web forum software replied with a "that doesn't work for me" email, but of course, we no longer have actual email addresses in the posts with this "via Digitalmars-d" stuff :D I can imagine many people use mail clients that by default use text/html. -Steve

My mail client only uses text/plain. T -- Not all rumours are as misleading as this one.

So I figure you didn't read the text/html part with the nice 1.5x line height which makes reading easy on the eyes? No? :) -- Marco

Yeah, sorry about that. The web interface that I'm forced to use for e-mail when I'm at work just got changed, and it screwed with my settings - and clearly in a very nasty way. It should be fixed now though. - Jonathan M Davis

Perhaps it is fixed, but on the web forum still there's nothing to be seen. What was it about? Something serious or some joke/semiserious stuff?

What was what? The post I posted to this thread that got munged? I could repost it, though there are several posts like that across the newsgroup, because I posted several times before I realized what's going on. - Jonathan M Davis
