[Hidden-tech] List messages show up empty/blank on iphone

*Not any more ...*

as Charlie was the first one to actually point to a specific reason why HT list postings 
showed up as
attachments, I was finally able to identify what caused the issue -- the list 
configuration did not recognize
a blank header as an empty and hence non-existent simple text header.
That header was changed some time ago to work on mobile devices, Gmail/IOS client being 
the only one that still
had a critical issue, others taking a bit more effort to read while showing the content if 
handled just right.

SO, as with many other HT activities, a simple question, re-asked over time, lead to 
someone in the group pointing to the root of the issue and leading to a solution.

*A few notes for those new members, and reminders to older ones:*

- This IS NOT a listserv - that is a specific program, it is an emailing list run using 
Mailman
                   http://www.gnu.org/software/mailman/

-  This is a moderated list so your posting MIGHT not get on the list (although few don't),
     so a posting can take up to 24 hours to get out, although most get out within a few hours
         mostly last minute events posting get trashed.
     Posting rules to be found at: http://www.hidden-tech.net/lists.html

- HT is really only a virtual community, (since 2012).
    It is run on servers owned by, supported by,
    and moderated by (with some help from my various staff), Myself
    SO if those of you who find value, it would be helpful at contribute at:
            http://www.hidden-tech.net/support-hidden-tech.html

Cheers,
Rich - webmaster/listmaster, etc etc etc
