thanks to God, no.
html mails are:
1) very much espensive in space:
text_only_mail_size * [5..10]= html_mail_without_images;
2) useless ( *highlight* something is very simple in text only);
3) annoying (try to read that nice message written in pink, when your
default background is yellow);
4) philosophically wrong : e-mail was thought to transmit text, ideas, not
layouts, psichedelic advertising, and is not optimized for this;
Afterwards, the major software producers wanted to give the funny
capability to use colors, nice backgrounds, sound for mails, and
others in-useful features, to attract users that aren't focoused on
efficiency of the communication and *respect* of the addressee
anyway, seems that TB2 will have HTML writing support.
market rulers... :-(
