I read my Email on a *nix machine using text mail clients. If I ever see
HTML in the first 5-lines of the body I immediately delete it. My
presumption is that I am not goign to see anything human readable. And, if
it was important enough, the text section would appear first like all my
other multi-part mail appears.

One way handle this is to use multipart mail. You can send one part with the
HTML and one part with the same message in text mode. For most users send
the HTML first and their mail client will display that, if it supports HTML
or the text otherwise. For AOL users send the TEXT first as it does not show
the HTML but get confused if you send the HTML before the text - I think it
just shows the raw HTML but I don't remember the reason.

Hi List!
Right now I am sending HTML e-mails, but what those users cannot receive
HTML e-mail? Does anyone know how to tell if a user cannot receive HTML
e-mail and then send those a plain/text e-mail instead?
Thanks in advance!
Sheri
