Dear Lee,

Thank you for teaching me.

I use Eudora.
I don't think I'm sending HTML.
I think Eudora also decodes some, but not all, html posts.

I can send bold, italic, underlined, color, different fonts and sizes.
I'm sending this post both plain and styled.

I have been "sending both",
thinking that if I send only 1,
some won't be able to read it.

Would I serve the system better to always send "plain only"
or if the post contains a picture, "styled only"
        (on the theory that if they can't see the picture,
        they don't need to get the post).

Nelson Helm
