Also, I didn't check to see what newsreader you use, but HTML encoding
sucks. =)

Graphics are better, but physics appear to be from DTR. Tearoffs, and puffs
of fire out exhaust.

HTML has never bothered me, even when I was on dial-up.
But that 's me :)

I have a terrible memory. In fact my memory's so bad I can't remember how
long it's been since I've forgotten anything.

FWIW, I don't believe I've ever actually read an email message that
was encoded in HTML. It's just way too much of a pain to parse a
message with a million tags in it when chances are it's not worth
reading anyway. I should just add a rule in Pine to automagically
discard anything that contains "<html>" in it.
Jason
Works for me.

Oh well, looks like I'll be taking a pass on this one. Thanks for the info Mike.

99.9% of the 2000-3000 work emails I get a month are HTML and include things
like formatted Word, Excel and other reports.
I wouldn't have it any other way, personally.

Anyway, I don't care if it's 2050, email and news readers aren't web
browsers, unless you're unfortunate enough to use an Outlook product,
which also means you need to run antivirus software, etc. I wonder if
Microsoft and Norton have some sort of side deal going.
Jason
I like the way it formats reports and other things that I receive/transmit
dozens of times a day.
My Outlook PST has nearly 100,000 emails in it.
Outlook is a fine email program IF you secure it properly and your mail
gateways are properly protected.
I also find it's single-file method of storage extremely convenient.
With that said, our corporate standard is Netscape 4.8 which I personally
cannot stand.
Mozilla is also excellent. In many ways, it's the most powerful email
client you can (not) buy.
