I don't think we need to impose those sort of restrictions. I personally
use sylpheed for patches and GMail for everything else and they have no
problem sorting things out.

The ODP mailing list covers both discussions as well as patches, and HTML
is useful for the former. The onus should be on those who have problems
with this to upgrade their tools rather than sending everyone else back to
the 1980s.
