Curiouser and curiouser.
Forget about the encrypting thing. No one would see anything of yours
if you encrypted, so that is not the problem.
Since I don't auto combine any of the parts posted by anyone, I get to
see how they arrive as sections (or 'packets').
Your jingle bell post arrived as six yellow parts. On all my servers.
It did not say it was yEnc encoded, (as yEnc usually does) but yEnc
posts arrive as all yellow packets. Note Mercury's posting of the
Embird program says it is yEnc in the subject line, and all the
single, uncombined packets are yellow, as they should be.
Yours are all yellow, but do not say yEnc in the subject line.
Uuencode arrives as one yellow packet (the first one) and all
subsequent packets are white and look like written code until combined
with the single yellow one
All your posts with attachments arrive looking like yEnc posting.
IE, all yellow packets. I cannot find a single post of yours (with
attachments) that is not all yellow.
JustUs seems to be able to see them if they are a single post, but
WLMail baulks at the ones needing to be combined. As it would with a
yEnc post.
Surprise's towel post shows as two yellow and one white packet. This
signals something is "wrong" with the post. It may not have arrived
for some people.
This is because there are two attachments in the same post.
One rar/zip per posting. It's just how it works best. Single design
files seem to be ok to do this, but sending more than one rar or zip
at a time and the server gets confused.
Till we figure it out, we can just muddle on. Those that can't get
some files will just have to say and we can try again.

Hmmm... now I'm worried you don't know what you are looking at,
because your posts (with attachments) have been posting at a
consistent 14000 lines forever.
Your 1159 ChrstmasOldFashioned (single post) of 19 December was almost
15000 lines, so your posting settings are variable.
Going back to the Zundt Easter post of yours, both parts are also
yellow. Uuencode does not do that.
I don't know what you are looking at... so I'm a bit lost with the
pointing and helping.

Not much of an explanation when I can't figure out why your posts are
arriving "looking" like yEnc, but you are sure you aren't using yEnc
settings - and you weren't posting 11000 lines at a time like you
thought you were.
I should have paid more attention in class... :-<
