Just FYI-- Several of us who use employer-sponsored email are locked into HTML. Though I have asked for plain text on numerous occasions, my employer informs me that it is not possible to set our Outlook Web Access to plain text. Jim

Subject: Re: [Finale] Tiny text
I second the call for plain text. HTML code was
never intended to be a universal and ideal method
of internet communication, and in fact lacks a
number of upper level characters.
I did not receive either message with tiny type.
Both came through in the format I've specified in
my "Settings." (Using MacEudora 6.2.1 on tiMac
PowerBook G4 with OS 10.3.8.) In an older OS
yes, some html messages came through almost
unreadable, either with embedded code or in some
fancy but unreadable font.
