No, I didn't mean for spam. Replying to spam is never a good idea, just
delete it. But if it's spam then who cares what form it's in, it can go
in the delete bin all the same :)

Most people I e-mail are quite willing to, actually. What you have to
remember is that there are a vast quantity of thick internet newbies
around (your average Joe HomePC User) and they haven't got a clue. A
number of distributions of Outlook Extrashite come configured with HTML
*on* as default, so most people are receptive if you tell them how to do
it (which is why I keep a text file with the instructions for turning HTML
off handy).
