But it seems likely that the vast majority of non-spam e-mail messages are sent to individuals who are known by the sender to be fully-sighted. In that case putting up an interface for entering alt= text, *just in case* the recipient gets struck blind before they get around to reading the message, seems a bit unreasonable.
Just because I can see doesn't mean that my email client will show me pictures. In fact, most of the email clients I use don't at least half the time. As such, encouraging people to include alt tags means the difference between me knowing that there's an image I care to look at and not.
