He's not talking about listing an URL, he's talking about embedding HTML
code in a e-mail message.  User's with mail programs that support HTML
can read and write messages with different font and paragraph
formatting.  It looks really good for those mail programs, but on
other's that don't support HTML it looks like random garbage
characters.  Since not everyone has an HTML mail program, the best thing
to do is turn HTML off.

In Netscape:

1. Click on Edit/Preferences.
2. Make sure that "Mail & Newsgroups" is expanded by clicking the "+"
sign.
3. Click on Formatting.
4. Make sure that "Ask me what to do with ..." is selected.
5. Click OK.

In Outlook:

1. Click on Tools/Options.
2. Click the "Mail Format" tab.
3. Make sure that "Plain Text" appears next to "Send in this message
format:".  If it doesn't, click the down arrow and select "Plain Text".
4. Click OK.
