The way this list (to which I subscribe) does HTML mail makes sense. It's
about the only HTML mail I tolerate, and the only HTML mail I receive
voluntarily.
[All that said, I've been toying with the idea of switching to text to
avoid waiting for the graphics to find their way over my 56K frame relay
connection.]
If the typical run of HTML were this sensible, I wouldn't be so vocally
anti-HTML mail.
The only time I send the stuff is to test something, usually with me as the
recipient.
