1) just a quick note to point out that whether you know it or not, the email program you are using is sending out copies of your mail in both plain text and HTML formats. increasingly on the net, there are filters being put in place that silently dump HTML-formatted email. some mailing lists will not ever accept such posts. as long as you do this, you are (1) wasting network bandwidth by sending messages that are typically more than twice as long as they could be (2) making it harder for people using traditional email readers to read them (3) risking the chance that people will never see your mail because its filtered before reaching their email inbox.
