You are still under one assumption: that if you had sent your e-mail

less if you send e-mail in plain text compared to HTML, it is not
always the case.
... I've seen your original post. I've see your repost. And
I've seen your query about why you are getting ignored. For me, the
answer is simple: I have no freaking clue how to solve your problem.
And I suspect the same goes for a lot of people on this list. Many
(dare I say most) people on this list don't care for HTML e-mails;
many people on this list use a mail client or a mailcap that is
capable of dealing HTML e-mails.

So don't be such a pompous ass. We didn't ignore you because we don't
like you. ...
So you are pissed that you got ignored. Well, tough. Stop making it
sound like hordes of people have came before you and were ignored
because of their HTML e-mails, and that unless this reform passes
hordes more of people will suffer the same fate. It just ain't true.
While I agree that it may be a good idea to have an FAQ somewhere
for the mailing lists discussion basic netiquette, your rather
personal vendetta is blowing this way out of proportion.

I agree wholeheartedly.
