TSGL: netzero inline text

[Chuck Neuenschwander]

yes, I tried "Free Personal Assistance via Email". They require that you pick from among 8 or so categories, none of which cover this problem.
   
  What I am after is setting the default, as I do in Yahoo,
  to say all  Forwards (and Replies) should include the original document
  as inline , not as an attachment. Simple enough request and covered easily in
  the other email programs I've used.

  Chuck,

Questions and possibilities.

Does this happen with email being forwarded to him, by him, or both -- i.e.
with forwards he is receiving, sending or both?

Does it happen with all emails or only some?

Are you talking about forwards from an email program (like Outlook Express
or Thunderbird) where you can choose "forward" or "forward as attachment,"
or are you talking about NetZero Web Mail?

If only some outgoing emails, is he sending them as plain text or rich text
(HTML)? "When you use HTML formatting and the recipient's mail or news
program does not read HTML, the message appears as plain text with an HTML
file attached. Only e-mail programs that support MIME (Multipurpose Internet
Mail Extensions) can read HTML formatting." (Quote from Outlook Express
Help. Do other email programs like Thunderbird have similar content in
their Help section?)

Some Googling included a thread you might find helpful at
http://www.freedomlist.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=158501.
Among the posts was this reply someone had received from NetZero:
"Please note that when you reply to a plain text message then the original
message will be included as inline text. If the original message is HTML
message then it will be included as an attachment."

Has your called NetZero's help line? Or used its "Free Personal Assistance
via Email" at
http://www.netzero.net/support/pat/index.html ?

working with a friend who uses NetZero email.
His forwards are attachments and we can't figure out
how to change them to inline text. Any suggestions?
thanx, chuck

Out of curiosity I did. Eventually a Mexican showed up with a tow truck.
