I think the message was just simple HTML, thus it was not affected by your preference to not display complex HTML. I have a question related to the e-mail backgrounds. A relative sends my wife e-mail messages with photos attached. Wanting to keep the Database trim, I usually save the photos to the desktop and put them in iPhoto, then remove them from the message. However, the e-mails almost always have the background image that we've been discussing. If I just remove the photo attachments and not the attached background image, the background stops displaying when the message is viewed. This can make the message very difficult to read anymore if the bg is dark and the text is light. Is there any way to prevent this from occurring?
