Re: [xmca] Style question



I think I am at last getting the hang of it ... maybe.

If you use a browser to read and write email, which a lot of people do, then you have an option for every message whether to compose using a full palette of styles, a dialogue box about whether to send as plain text and/or HTML and an option whether to display in plain text (which means the asterisks etc and no colour) or see the full palette of style. I had never used these option before, but they are there.

Oops, how about this bold, this red, this italics, this underlined.

There has been a change in the settings for xmca, so I have reset my Thunderbird settings so I can send formated text, let's see what happens, including this very long line..

*Bold Text*, Red Text, /Italics/ and _Underline_ in native fonts

*Bold Text*, /Italics/ and _Underline_ in simple format

<b>Bold</b>, <i>Italics</i> and <u>Underline</u> using HTML tags

I saw no red text in Mike's message yesterday, and none of these examples show up for me as italics, bold or underlined.

I use a Macbook with the Apple Mail program.  I can send and receive this formatting when e-mail programs are compatible.  Apple Mail deserves the T-shirt "Does not play well with others."

Fellow XMCA-ers, can you tell me if /this word/ comes out in /italics/ and if _this word_ is _underlined_ and if *this* is *bold*?

_Let's try a second go_.
/And once more in italics/
*and again in bold*.

And can anyone tell me that they could see the red text in the comments Mike added to a message yesterday?

Please don't bother answering if someone else has already given the same answer as you would give.

Andy
