Why should Mozilla do it for the user? Because normal users don't know the convention (at least not during writing - they might be ale to interpret it while reading, and we try to help with the bolding in the viewer, as do many other apps). Counter-question: If bold can be ignored, why do you make it bold? Bold doesn't exactly *look* nice. (OK, apart from your original example, but then again, it's up to the mailer what to generate.) > Do you think I should file a bug for this? That depends on how badly you want these *s to go away. It'd be a Severity: Enh IMO. FIle it against DOM-Text Conversion.
