HTML in the mailing list (was RE: thanks)




Oops, as one of the offenders I sincerely apologize.  It appears that my
Outlook 98 responds in the same format as the one I'm replying to, so if I
reply to an HTML message it comes in HTML format.

If you want to prohibit HTML messages, that's fine with me.  HTML is great
for personal e-mail but is a pain for mailing lists.  You'd think people
would want their messages to be equally readable by everyone.
