ChileBuzz, I just sent her an invite to open a Gmail account. Several list members here use Gmail so should work for her? jt ----- Original Message ----- From: ChileBuzz To: chile-heads@globalgarden.com Sent: Thursday, September 01, 2005 10:10 PM Subject: [CH] Death by Hotpot /&/ Mary-Anne says hello Hi all, I want to share a post I greatly enjoyed on another list and thought you might enjoy as well: Death by Hotpot, posted by Simon Bao, whose posts to Mary-Anne's lively Yahoo group, Gastronomique, are always a pleasure to read. Simon gave the greenlight to share this with CHs and added a few more notes for you [at end of his original post]. First, though, let me just mention that I also obtained Mary-Anne's permission. Mary-Anne said she is greatly frustrated that she cannot get a post through to the Chile-Heads list. She's ready to chat and share more of hers and Steve's recipes (which we all know means good eating). With a little help a while back, she finally managed to get re-subbed to the list and she does receive CH posts -- but cannot get anything through to the list herself. As I understand it, the problem is some ISPs do not provide a way to send plain-text email and you can only post to CH in plain text. She can find no way to change the ISP's email-format preference. She has also tried using Firefox, but still cannot get a message through to the list. She thinks this email-format problem is why some long-time CH members are no longer posting as well. They just cannot get through. She misses chatting with everyone. If you know how to solve the posting prob for her, I am sure she'd be grateful to hear from you.
