iframes is one of the many things thrown away for me by a procmail recipe. It amazes me that anyone thinks it's alright to send all this heavily formatted stuff in the mail, and I thought this long before mail was considered just yet another virus distribution vector. Anyone who goes to such lengths to pretty up the stuff they write in order that it be read, obviously isn't saying much that's worth reading. I was once sent a 10 Mb Powerpoint file (from a potential client) that I was to fill out in order to apply for work. Needless to say, we don't bother each other anymore. -- Any technology distinguishable from magic is insufficiently advanced.
