I am not sure I really understand what this TOTAL annoyance with html mes-
sages is all about. Those that I have gotten were done that way for added
legibility and ease of linking to a site listed in the message (if I chose).
The fact that the message was somewhat more pleasant to see, is irrelevant to
the functionality, and, is welcome. What I do not like is when a spam message
forces me to use html just to determine what it is saying; that is the type of
message which irks me.
If I am missing something, let me know. I am not and I never have, nor will
I condone the the other aspects people are stupidly accepting and using, all
because MS says that there is a new "doodad" to make "everything so much better,
and everyone will love it." I just do not see the connection here.
Julian.
