   That's easy - send out digests as text/plain, exactly the way I'm doing
now (with the exception of one tiny-subscriber-base list), which gets the job
done just fine, thanks. I'm sorry, I'm not as comfortable with the concept of
"fuzzy standards" as you seem to be. Either it's right or it isn't; if it
isn't, I'll either fix it or abandon it. Simply saying, "if the point of
agreement turns out not to be exactly permissible under the appropriate
specification, that's okay" may be fine for you, but to me it negates the
entire idea of _having_ a "standard," and it _isn't_ "ok." It's the mark of a
flaw.
