I won't do that for my primary mail program. Well, it *accepts* html mail, but it displays it as text, complete with all the tags. That means it's all but impossible to understand what is being said. As a result, those questions don't get answered. Occasionally I fire up an alternative mail program (usually when there is an attachment I really want to extract, or somesuch). I then go back and review any outstanding malformed messages.
