[amsat-bb] VUCC Standings formatting

[Matthew Chambers]

That might be a problem as my email client doesn't have a plain text mode,
all emails are HTML with no user changeable settings. I could make all my
emails plain text but then it would be server wide for me and anyone else
on the domain. And it would wipe out everyone's signature files which would
have to be remade in plain text. I just wonder why the email list can't
grow with the rest of the internet?
