I just thought I would add my $.02 to the debate. I don't approve of HTML in emails unless the recipient is known to accept it. Even in the (rare) cases where HTML might add to the content, I would suggest sending the HTML file as an attachment, and still have the message itself as plain text. It should then explain the basic nature of why the recipient should go through the hassle of opening the HTML file. I often read my mail on HTML-capable systems, but nevertheless I dislike HTML mail. Most of the time, when I receive a mail in HTML, the sender tries to force his font type and size upon me. (or just as bad: his sick taste in colours.) At other times I read mail on PMDF Pine 3.96 on my school's VMS server. This version of Pine does not understand HTML, and I cannot upgrade it. Another point in favour of plain text is the size. HTML is usually about 50% larger than plain text. If the sender is using a bad editor, it gets larger yet. (Font and color-forcing for each paragraph takes up quite a few bytes.) When I receive HTML-mails, I usually do one of the following: - delete it without reading. - write a polite message to the sender, explaining why HTML is bad. - whatever I would have done if it had been in plain text.
