I think HTML in e-mail sucks. Email should be what the are ment for : Giving
and getting info. Not ment to be a complete color-page in an e-mail.

Many people still use Pine (Me to, except for this mailing list), and I like
a nice e-mail without all the extra's.

Microsoft. There is only one thing good about M$crosoft: There marketing
strategy.
Nearly all there products are bad (read : instable and large and full of
bugs).

I just like a plain text-interface, not all that resource eating graphics.
