HTML e-mail is always more than likely to be spam than a real message. In fact, I typically have a filter set up to automatically send mails with html to the trash. After I saw civileme's post, I had to go retrieve this one to reply to it. You'll notice how hard it is to read your post. And yes many still use text-only browsers, for many reasons, not the least of which is a security one. -- Greg
