Good Afternoon F. John,

[JR: Thanks, Rich. Not much I can do about it. Yahoo sends them out and, if IEEE doesn't recognize them as a "trusted sender", the messages are going to score high on the routine spam tests. Argh! Thanks for letting me know. What would be an interesting experiment, is for you to sign up for the RSSFWD on the weekly distribution and compare the "pass rate". I could start a group that just sends a URL to the weekly issue, but that seems unnecessary. Comments?]

OK, I subscribed to the RSS feed for JJ; my feed reader is Sharpreader 0.9.7.0. This will totally bypass the IEEE aliasing service and SPAM scoring.
I will keep the RSS feed; I am trying to isolate the “font” problem previously described by our esteemed classmate, Vince Alline, as follows: “I’m looking for an apostrophe (‘) and I find ’”. I am seeing this problem and variations of it in e-mails from multiple sources including LinkedIn Updates <updates@linkedin.com> which shows a bullet majuscule A caret preceeding FJohn Reinke has joined Exit 8 . I also see the problem in e-mail from FAASafety.gov <announce@faasafety.gov>. I have two subscriptions to FAASafety.gov. One subscription is text/plain and the other is text/html. The problem occurs for both Content-types. I have enabled detailed logging in my e-mail client to capture the raw data streams and intend to post the data on my web site if anyone is interested.
Regards,
Rich
[JR: Go gettem Tiger. Nice to have a real pro on the job. ROFL!]
