Netscape Communicator has an option to turn this on or off. So Netscape
can inflict this on readers at the other end. Its easily found in
Preferences. I've left it off because of the experience I've had with
it. I'm not sadistic like that.
Printed Quotable Mime Encoding as MicroSoft sends it is shown as an
Attachemnt. In order to see as such you have to have show attchments
inline turned on. If its not you see the typical attachment display you
would when you send a picture or such item.
As such it can not be changed as its an attachment, and is dependent
upon how it was setup and sent from originating site.
Again, this is the only form of HTML that should be banned.

If it's "fixed", don't "break it"!
