I am a user of Unix text based email as well. I however do not think that HTML should stay on the WEB site. As much of a pain in the ass as it may be right now...I think it is probably the up and coming standard. My opinion is that we text-based dinosaurs just need to grin and bear it. I would rather plug through HTML from someone who has knowledge to share that could improve my diving than have clean emails. Now I am not saying that I like doing it, but I do realize it is MY problem and not the rest of the lists' problem so I have to deal with it. On Thu, 9 Jul 1998, Sean T.
