Sorry, yours are fine. I wasn't as exact as I might have been. You
need to send plain text. Anna's message was a multi-part message in
MIME format. I had no trouble with yours. The other three messages
that she sent today were ok (not multi-part mime). In multi-part MIME
you get the message repeated in various formats. Plus she had exceeded
the 4 messages per day limit and that rejected message was also
included. The total size came to 11KB. Rich text format and HTML are
ways that produce this multi-part MIME format.

Thanks,
