Plain text is the most basic and standard format that *ANY* email client can read. Any other platform (Linux, sun, Atari (j/k), etc.) would not be able to read RTF format and some wont be able to read HTML format. Have you or your lawyers saw some email messages that had some junk HTML code within a message so bad that you can't read the message itself. And there's waayyy to many people have different preference on how to "decorate" their email message with HTML to a point it can be quite annoying for those who receive it. So the main point is - plain text is the best email format out there - barnone. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of East, Bill Sent: Thursday, January 09, 2003 3:42 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Opinions on the best message format. In addition to the other objections raised, there are plenty of tricks that could be done with stylesheets, embedded content, &c. that would substantially mask or change the content of a message after it had been received by your lawyers. Plain text makes it much harder to insert small print. -- be - MOS > -----Original Message----- > From: Darrin J.
