I don't know why the asking thing didn't work (I'd have to look, and
it's not really important anymore), but the domain thing doesn't have to
ask you, because you've told it what to do. Don't worry, there is an
explanation of what's going on, but I don't think you want to hear it;
rest assured that all is working correctly at this point.

Well, there's nothing but text in this message, so there's no reason it
should look different when displayed as HTML or as text (because there's
nothing to display *but* text, which looks the same in HTML as it does
plain)

Well, you could look at your headers to see for sure, but that would
probably confuse you more; suffice to say I've looked at the header for
this mail, and it is plain text.

No, it's not HTML-- a cute trick of Mozilla mail and Thunderbird is the
ability to convert known "smiley text" to a graphic (it's a setting, on
by default, but it can be turned off). It appears to me as a yellow
smiley face as well (because I use Thunderbird and have the setting on),
but to those using command-line email readers, it appears as a text
smiley, which those users should be able to recognize just as well as
the graphic.

:-D

Welcome back! Glad you let your huff go off without you :-) .
