Because the bank is concerned about the bank's security, not yours. The bank exposes itself to no additional risk by sending out HTML email. You expose yourself to some risk (how much depends on your MUA) by reading HTML email. Since the risk is borne by you, and the reward -- in the form of a more professional-looking communication -- is gained by the bank, it's in the bank's best interests to send HTML email. _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
