Would people like the option to get their mail in HTML format? I guess the option would be nice, but I'm not sure if it'll add anything. Since many won't get it in HTML you'd still be stuck with simple formatting if you want everybody to read it. (As an aside - I've never understood the "war" against HTML email/NNTP posts. It seems the perfect solution to me: a text only, non proprietary method for adding truly rish formatting to email? Sounds great to me.) > 6.

I guess the one that I sometimes would like is the ability to add attachments to the message (code chunks, images, docs, etc). I know it's a can of worms and would increase storage requirements, but it would be very useful in quite a few cases. If this was done however I would suggest only keeping the attachment in the archives and not sending it with the message - a link in the message body would be enough for me and would eliminate the giant bandwidth jump caused by sending all participants attachments. I'll also throw my hat in the ring as being pro UseNet - I'd much rather participate via NNTP. It's not a deal-breaker by any means (I'm here!) but it would be very nice.
