I have to agree here. Maybe I'm just a die-hard purist, but I hate HTML
mail. IMO, if you truly *need* formatting in your message, send a Word
document as an attachment ;)  Actually, to be fair, I've softened a bit on
that stance, due entirely to this list: as others have mentioned frequently,
often the best way to send a script without breaking lines is via HTML mail.
I think I've send two HTML emails in my life, and both were AppleScripts to
this list ;)

But for the most part, HTML is unnecessary. Plus the fact that many, many
people still use email clients that don't read HTML mail. You'd be simply
AMAZED at how many people, especially in academia and research, still use
Pine!
