Dear NIFL Discussion List Subscribers,

Recently, the National Institute for Literacy's Discussion Lists have been
very active. Everyday, we hear from current subscribers and welcome new
subscribers. We welcome your questions, comments, suggestions, thoughts,
and concerns about professional development and teaching adults.

We have noticed that some subscribers have had difficulty posting to the
lists. We would like to remind you that messages must be sent in Plain Text
format to the NIFL Discussion Lists. Plain Text messages should not
contain bold, italic, bulleted lists, or any other text or paragraph
formatting. All links should be entered with the "http://" before the rest
of the URL.

Most email programs have a way to set your default messages in plain text.
Many have a way to set "plain text" for each email sent. We have a list of
step-by-step directions for MOST email programs at
http://www.nifl.gov/lincs/discussions/help/nomime.html. If you are still
unsure how to set your email to plain text, check with your internet
provider or the email program's help area.

If you are sure your messages are plain text format but you are still
getting a message from the server, please contact Connie Harich,
(Contractor, L-3 Titan) Web Specialist for the National Institute for
Literacy at charich at nifl.gov.

Thanks,
National Institute for Literacy
