I've told hundreds of people this, is there any way you can put it in the sign up mail or on the mailing list page or something or just filter all HTML mail out of the list as it really bugs me (and I presume most other people) and it would also nullify the spam issues that seem to be getting worse.

Re: [Samba] Please no HTML email.
Totally agree with you. OE users can disable HTML mails by going to "Tools/Options/Send"and set format to "unformatted text" Boogerman - Original Message - From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, November 19, 2002 7:47 PM Subject: [Samba] Please no HTML email. > Hi all, > > FYI, just a warning/note.

Please no HTML email.
Hi all, FYI, just a warning/note. I read my email on mutt from samba.org. When I get an html formatted email I just hit 'D' (delete) without looking at the contents. I think many other Samba Team members do the same. If you send an urgent plea for help and it's html formatted then I doubt anyone in the Samba Team will ever see it. html formatted email is 99.9% spam, and gets treated as such. Just thought that people might like to know that Jeremy.
