+<h2>A Response Letter to the Word Attachments</h2>
+
+<p>
+This is an automatic message:
+</p>
+<p>
+The document you have sent is not an Internet mail format. It is a
+proprietary format that is unreadable on several types of computers,
+including those used by visually-impaired readers and older computers
+used in foreign countries. In most cases, the size of the file is
+substantially larger than a plain-text file containing the same
+information. (Even if it LOOKS like plain-text to you, chances are it
+is not, and contains a considerable amount of unnecessary formatting
+codes, printer information, etc.) In addition, Microsoft Word
+documents are often infected with viruses. Excel, Access, and Power
+Point files are also vulnerable to infection.
+</p>
+<p>
+Please &ldquo;Save As&rdquo; DOS Text, HTML or Portable Document
+Format (PDF) and send the resulting file as an attachment. Another
+option is to simply type your message directly into mail (not
+Microsoft Outlook or Microsoft Word) then you won't need to use an
+attachment at all.
+</p>
+<p>
+In the highly unlikely event that your document cannot be converted to
+an open, non-proprietary format, consider posting it on a web page,
+and sending e-mail with the URL which points to the file.
+</p>
+<p>
+Thank you.
+</p>

+antitrust violations by both the U.S. District Court and the
+U.S. Court of Appeals.)
