    Can you please explain more? I presume you are talking about reading the WaccoBB Daily Digest via that Yahoo Mail website. Is that correct? Are you seeing the table of contents correctly, including the banners? If you scroll to the bottom do you see the footer? Is the problem that when you click on a title in the table of contents it doesn't jump to the post in the body of the digest?

    I have yahoo mail and it always works for me.
    You most likely have to click the "Show Details" "button" in upper right side of the main email frame; (to the right of the email title after opening that email).
    To see "images" like the comics (Political Cartoons) that Barry posts you may have to click the "Show Images" "button" depending on your (changeable) yahoo settings.
    Check the "options" button" and look at the ones that are available. You may want to change something else from there too.

    Also, if there are any attachments you would have to open it/them to "see" what is; but be sure you trust the source that sent you the attachment before opening any of them.

    Re: yahoo mail

    After speaking with another Yahoo user having trouble, it seems that if you either click "Show Details" or click "Show Details" AND Reload the page it works. Can anybody confirm this?

    I have had to click "Show Details" twice to see the postings since the new Yahoo format took over.

    Yes, the new yahoo mail truncates the full email, when you scroll down to the bottom, in the lower left it says that and in the lower right has a box to "Show Full Message" or "Show Details" (can't remember exactly) and when you click on that (I only have to once) it reloads the entire email.

    Re: yahoo mail

    I just poked around in Yahoo Mail and it seems like it mostly works if you add [email protected] in your contacts (right click on whatever is displayed in your inbox on the digest line in the From column and select Add to contacts) and then scoll to the bottom and click on Show Full Message.

    Alternatively, I could make an option to have the table of contents in your digest links directly to the thread on the website, and not include the thread contents in the body of the digest. Would anybody prefer that??? Shouldn't be too hard...
