It's me! No, seriously, HTML e-mail is IMVHO not something to be afraid
of. See JUdell(1995). And that is exactly the reason, why I would vote
for gmutt too (I know, that you CAN make console HTML viewer -- but
exactly in things, which are the most important for HTML mail, like
tables, is Lynx the weakest link).
