Moot point. Markup is not a strain on connection speed, as multiple
users have already pointed out. Attachments are. And I don't think
anybody is arguing that the restrictions against attachments should
be changed. Just the irrational and obsolete insistence on
plaintext.
Wow. Check out the quoting above - yea, that's what HTML-based gets
you. So much for the email standards.
As for your mootness... when I'm on a metered connection, I'm paying
per kilobyte. How 'bout if I bill you each time you send 1 KB of
text in a 4 KB message?
Dennis' point is NOT moot. BE CONSIDERATE or you will end up with NO AUDIENCE.
