It is an option. It means you can set it up for friendliness with MS-like
mailing lists, and disable it here! nice.

I personally expressed myself only on your HTML postings. My message was
not aggressive, and was just asking you to remove it, with a nice "please"
to not be rude.
Then you answered in an aggressive way, telling we are just not in sync
with today's technology.
Of what we all try to explain you why we don't agree.
And, no, for the PGP key, please leave it as it is: it will help my scoring to
perform more accurately. :-))

Well, do you know this is a developper's mailing list? if you seek for
some information and stuff like that, you should probably use "newbie" or
"expert" mailing list.
And of course you ARE free to behave as you like and send HTML stuff -- as
we are free to slam you when we feel you don't respect our simple rules of
efficiency.

I'm sorry, I wrote the cooker-faq but forgot to precise you should avoid
HTML postings. [actually it seemed too obvious..]

Most from the Windows World are brainless?
FYI many posters on this ML use Outlook Express, for various reasons, but
they do not post with HTML..
