>Can anyone think of arguments against using html or RTF?

1) Not every reader in the world can read html or RTF, but to be fair that's
less and less of a concern.

2) For the same reason the lawyers use plain text on court documents. RTF
and HTML allow you to get too cought up in colors and fonts making the text
harder, not easier, to read.

Can anyone think of arguments against using html or RTF? Personally I
think that plain text is the way to go because of minimum hassle.  But
I'm dealing with 200 attorneys that like to ask why?

Hi, 

I wanted to get the groups opinion on the best message format to use in 
Outlook 98.  

Text/HTML or RTF. 

Any pros or cons regarding the types would be most helpful. 

The backend is Exchange 2000 with SP3.
