The ads from Egroups are an annoyance to many. I run a couple of
other groups on Egroups, so I've been over this ground. If the group
sponsor is willing to pay a fee to Egroups, something like $5 to $10
per month, they will eliminate the ads. If it is enough of an
annoyance to us members, perhaps Mark could ask for people to
volunteer to send $1 a month to him, and he could pay Egroups to
leave the ads out.
In my groups, nobody thought it was worth money to get rid of the
ads, so we live with them. For users of Outlook Express or
Entourage, I can give you an AppleScript that will strip out those
ads. See my web page (URL below).

I receive my IOMUG mail via OE 5.02, at Earthlink. Beginning today,
most of the individual messages I've received (like this one) have
included an eGroups Sponsor ad. They take forever to load, and I'd
rather not have to deal with them. Since the group's move to
eGroups, I've been more than a little confused. I had hoped to wait
until we'd officially left the UTA site before making any drastic
changes to my subscription. Is there some re-setting of my OE prefs
that I need to attend to - or should the ads be eliminated on the
sender's end of the posts?
