[vtkusers] Questions about using this mailing list

You are right this is non-technical, but still *very* important for a mailing list (contents always comes with a certain presentation). They are some simple rules that were summarized by Prabhu here:

Among them, one says that 'You shall send email in text format'. Otherwise as you noticed not all email clients are able to process them, and even our ML archiver is not able to parse them properly.

I guess you should be able to configure Outlook express to send mail as text (instead of HTML). If not switch to mozilla/firebird/firefox/fire-fusion/fire-dash ;) and you'll be able to easily install chinese font set so you won't suffer from:
