Spider's posts aren't in HTML, but they're in a "user-defined"
charset, which might be confusing your newsreader. When I'm
using SLRN, it offers to run them through metamail, because
they're a nonstandard MIME type. This is probably a config
problem on his end, but I haven't complained about it before
now because they are just plain text, and telling SLRN to
ignore the MIME type makes them perfectly readable for me,
unlike HTML.
