:-) Glad that you took it in right spirit. You would know what I meant
if you go through threads in archive and see that we miss no
opportunity to advise folks on etiquette but really dont answer their
queries. Newbies would take it in right spirit when we provide answers
first then advice else may only get intimidated. I am pure desktop
user but going through threads i understood how I can lead a plain
text life without *bold* and _italics_.

I really hope at least in next decade we will leave plain text legacy
behind us. ;-) It will be a good riddance?
