Unfortunately, Outlook does not seem to check any of this when relying to an
email.  So if I reply to an html it goes out that same way unless I tell
Outlook to reformat it.

Most list servers FAQ specify plain text mail. It is universally readable.

I am at this minute using Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.5 to do web mail
using Netscape.  In the options, I am able to select plain text for any
selected address in my address book, or as the default for all addresses.

If you are using Outlook Express, the NAME tab for a contact in the address
book has a tick box on the bottom left to send mail to the address as plain
text only.

All I do when Razzak's gobbledy-gook shows up is [Del].

My pet peeve has more to do with the good Dr. R> adding "razzak's reply" to
the message header, destroying the thread link.  Hey Dr R>?????
