Actually now that you say that most of the emails are coming through the reg python-lists, not the tutor section.  I guess I should just unsubscribe from python-lists because my questions are going through the tutor section for awhile.

Yeah, I had no idea that my messages were coming through in HTML, nor what it looked like until someone sent me a section showing me what it looked like, I can see how that would be frustrating.  

I’m using the mail app on my macbook pro, any suggestions on how to stop it from going out as html?  Do I need to change the font?  Also, I think last time I sent a section of my code I copy and pasted it from my script, could that be the problem?

Thanks again!
