Aye, but the same things that apply to HTML news apply to HTML mail, even more so -- web bugs in HTML mail can link mail to IP address for tracing, spammers love the confirmation they get that the mail was viewed, and they can (if they want) then track the IP linked to the email address. The malware issues are identical, mail or news. HTML is fine on the web, but keep it out of my mail, and keep it out of my news! -- Duncan - List replies preferred. No HTML msgs.
