What do you think of the new MR.com HTML e-mail newsletter format?

(It’s being delivered late in the evening of November 26, 2003.)

Please note: You will only receive the graphically-enhanced HTML newsletter version if the preferences on your computer are set to accept HTML e-mails. Otherwise, you will continue to receive out text version.

When I posted this thread I knew someone would make a crack about that. I needed to create it prior to the e-mail going out so the e-mail would have something to link to. I know, the cart before the horse, the chicken and the egg… but some things can’t be avoided. I hope you guys like it. [8D]

Have a great Thanksgiving!

Dear Bergie or any addministrator guy,
I got a new e-mail address and updated my profile but I haven’t been getting any newsletters that I checked off (i.e. railroading, scale model trains). Is there a problem? Help!

Looks fine. Might be a bit wider. Reads easier.

Your new format is more enjoyable to read, even though it is the same as before but it is organize better and easier to find topics.

New format is Great. It has the feel of the magazine.

Hello!

Looking at the overwhelming support for the new format, now I seem to understand why computer viruses are so successful in spreading.

My primary mailer is “text-only,” so the attached HTML section is an eyesore.

I wi***hat MR could provide some option to send out “text-only” messages. Since many sites offer such service, it should not be too difficult.

Regards,

I love it. Much more interesting.

I really enjoy the new format. It is much easier to read and look at. Keep the good work up.

Great!

I like the new format

Awesome…now if you could only post better quality video clips it would really make a great addition to the web page.

It looks ok, but I prefer text emails, and am aware some mail programs don’t tolerate HTML messages well.

Hi satochan,

We actually do deliver a text version of the e-mail newsletter in addition to the HTML format. The e-mail that’s delivered to the end user is based on the preferences set up on the user’s computer.
