I've been trying to receive newsnet (five attempts and counting, over
the last two months or so). Today I got an email from them -
containing text to the effect of 'from Julie Rand' and a .doc file.
Firstly, I don't have any microsoft software on the machine I read
email on, secondly I mostly use it in a text console so even
openoffice won't help, and thirdly I'm not going to open arbitrary
binary files appearing without any covering description. Is this
their normal way of using email?
I've emailed them back telling them so.
I don't recall when I last thought positively about the CTC - it just
seems to go from bad to worse.
regards, Ian SMith
