Can I just ask why the majority of the mail on this list is in

I don't mean to moan and I know it's not a major issue but still.

It's a common problem, in that most html formatting messes up the
indenting of an inline program segment. But other than telling each
newcomer that has the latter problem, there's no enforcement, as far as
I know.
if you're using Thunderbird, you can just tell it to
View->MessageBodyAs->Plain text. I do that for all my email, and it
prevents much spam, makes Phishing more obvious, and probably avoids
some viruses.
