Hey Listahs,

Regarding HTML in mail (not 'complex html'), I've noticed something today
that I've spent the last hour trying to figure, and can't.

I have my preference unchecked for displaying complex HTML in the Mail &
News>'Read' tab; unchecked for displaying a formatting toolbar in the Mail &
News>'Compose' tab (and both pop-ups there are set to 'Plain Text'); and my
default font under the Preferences>General>'Fonts' tab for 'HTML messages
(proportional)' is Verdana 10.

However, sometimes I still get "html" mail, for which I use the Remove HTML
script (I think it's Allen's, IIRC) which makes the tiny text message
(usually Helvetica-like) instantly transform into Verdana 10.

Today, I noticed in a message (from Paul B.) that the size/font was fine
(Verdana 10), but there was helpful formatting present -- some italicized
words here and there.

I am confused as to how I get 'html-ized' messages ITFP, and would tolerate
it gladly if I could read the text.  (I'm not 'afraid' of HTML, just of odd
typefaces and/or very small text.)

Can someone tell me what I might be missing in the understanding of HTML
mail here? And also what gives with still receiving tiny-print type given my
settings? And, further, how I might set my pref's to allow formatting but
force my font choice (and not offend other recipients ;)?

I've always been a pure text-only mail and news believer, and wouldn't want
a method that windows users couldn't read either, but I'm coming around to
seeing some bold and oblique here and there.

Thanks a lot,

Gary
