I just updated my report because mine are not getting deleted even when I manually delete delete and answer the prompt. Yes, I am using .21 Build (is .22 out yet btw?)

This is not about you and your preferences. HTML email is here and some people use it, some don't. That preference has _nothing_ to do with functionality. -- cheers, Indie_Dev Current beta is 3.99.21 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

That is what I was addressing Can we agree that your dissertation on the merits of HTML did not address the question? That is what I was addressing. I offered a different point of view. Whats there to address? Your respond was unwarranted and without merit. In other words, you were just being a smart a$$ because quite seriously you _don't_ really believe that we're going to tell our friends, family, colleagues, team mates etc to stop using HTML. Gimme a break. -- cheers, Indie_Dev Current beta is 3.99.21 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
