Invoices. All the invoices I get from utilities are in html email.
No way I can change that, and if I don't pay they might cut the 
electricity.

There places for html and places free of it. These mail lists should 
remain free. Business communication can use what /they/ like, specially if 
they pay. Some of them even if they get paid.

Same as here: there are rules. Here the rule is "no html". For some 
companies the rule is "we send html". Simply respect every rule...

Yes, it does. It is a different address for each correspondent, so seeing 
the address, you know.

Like:

mine.001@somewhere
mine.002@somewhere
mine.003@somewhere
mine.004@somewhere

If you see spam going to mine.003@somewhere, you know that the person you 
gave your address "mine.003@somewhere" leaked it.
