[Steppes] Mailing list and content filtering

Folks,

I have noticed an increase lately in content filtered messages, due to folks sending emails with embedded graphics, or code.  While these have all been inocuous, the mailing list software filters them and discards the message (it's a simple form of virus and worm protection).  This all happens without the moderators action.  In order to prevent that from happening, please try not to send embedded graphics (a perfect example for those using outlook is html style email where you have a picture in the background to replicate fancy paper), or html coding in your emails.  There is a very good chance these will be filtered, and there is nothing the admins can do retroactively.

thanks,
