     Hey -- Bill Gates is getting rich off of us too, but I can't read any
     of these attachment either! The quickest solution is the "delete"
     icon.

Hi, all -
     
Just a gripe from a Macintosh bigot..
     
     
On Wed, 20 Nov 1996, DavidS1165@aol.com sent the following under the
subject of Career Search:
     
>Content-ID: <0_26888_848528639@emout14.mail.aol.com.73977>
>Content-type: text/plain
>
>Please see attached file.
>
>Content-ID: <0_26888_848528639@emout14.mail.aol.com.73978>
>Content-type: application/octet-stream;
> name="MAILLST.DOC"
     
     
Why do people send attached documents with the automatic assumption that
everyone on the planet is contributing to Bill Gates' continuing quest for
wealth? Do me a favor - if you want me to read something, send it as text,
not as a spreadsheet or a Word or whatever document, for which I might not
have the application...
     
Especially if Career Search means you're looking for a job, pal!
     
Later,
