Currently these lists only accept plain text e-mail and reject HTML mail.
Simple HTML 2.0 mails are probably fine. I hope our ML software has an option to strip out embedded script fragments. CSS is probably ok, but if you allow Javascript there will be a risk.
Not to mention HTML remote images and tracking. However keep in mind that I doubt we can filter this. It's either text plain or HTML with whatever else can be included.
This is inconvenient and harms our community, specially newcomers whose e-mail client sends HTML mail by default (it's 2020, yes, HTML mail is the default for many clients).
But you can change this for many (all?) clients ;)
IIRC not for our "friend" Outlook. That's what happens when buggy email clients are used :-D So FMPOV the problem is more not about being in 2020, but about giving support for broken clients.
I have received complaints about this and I have been bitten by this myself.
Is anyone against HTML mail? why? Please speak up until next Friday 13.03.2020
I'n not against HTML mail on the uyuni lists—I'm not the ML "owner".
Neither am I. If we decide to go this path, we need to ask the openSUSE Heroes as only they can change the setup for the lists and the software used to manage them. -- Julio González Gil Release Engineer, SUSE Manager and Uyuni jgonzalez@suse.com
