I'm posting this public, as others may learn from it, and get a GOOD
E-Mail reader, if they encountered a similar problem (maybe Wilson has
a Mac?).
Hi Wilson,
I can imagine your frustration and anger at receiving what on the
surface appears to be pure garbage, and TO YOU seemed like some
"asshole" sending annoying garbage on a public USENET.
I guess this was your form of retaliation, further SPAMing all the
members of the list, repeating in its entirety only part of the
graphic file.
I can imagine that you are a newbie, or beginner to the World Wide
Web. This is not an insult, as we all have to begin somewhere, it's
just that some lurk and learn by observing, and build a solid
foundation based on not repeating the errors of other fools.
Others jump in, and think they know everything. (we do, as investors,
need those fools, as the money we make in the market has to come from
somewhere<g>.

represent a mode of sending graphic images, using E-Mail. A good
reader, should be able to put together the graphic image, and display
the result for your viewing pleasure. Unfortunately, your technical
ignorance of the computer systems, allowed for this message to come
unrestricted into your machine. A good E-Mail reader, should allow you
to filter out such messages with binary information, and allow only
test messages into your computer.
You should not try to lower the level of expertise of the members of
this USENET, to satisfy your own low level. (which is reflected in
your choice of words "asshole"). May I suggest you get a fellow
computer enthusiast to help you out, and lurk for a couple of months
before posting again.
Speaking only for myself, I do not mind getting graphic files. It is
my choice and I let them in. As part of MY choice, I would not
restrict others from sending such files. It should be the choice of
the one who DO NOT want the graphic file, to place such a simple
filter in THEIR system.
Oh....yes, one more thing, I can easily select to "filter" out
websites, names, or <subject> from my E-Mail.
