Now that's probably true!

I know, at least for me, this discussion is very needed

Actually using that, 90% of all mail is crap.  Not just HTML email, but
email period.  Which is true; just look at me spam folder.  lol

for that matter look at this topic... its going way, way over the deep
end and into the sh!tter.

Have you heard of Sturgeon's Law?

Why would HTML mail be exempt?

Because that, like HTML mail, is a poor use of the medium. TV is a
visual medium. Email is a textual medium. You don't know how people will
read their email, either. HTML mail looks like crap on anything except a
standard computer.
