Actually, Tomas, I think that is a configuration choice I made years ago 
and havn't touched since as these old eyes like black text on white.  
Plus my kmail is 1.9 since its tde's r14.0.10 version. 99.9% of kde 
3.5's bugs fixed. Stable.  :-)

html only email

[Gene Heskett]

Had better have a very interesting subjct line or it does not get read 
here. I have, for security reasons, told kmail to not show html, and to 
override that takes up to 5 mouse clicks.

Plain text that gets past spamassassin and clamav, does get read 100%. So 
the choice as to whether or not your message is read, is up to you. If 
you choose to use a broken email agent, expect to be ignored.

Cheers, Gene Heskett

   I read my mail with pine.  Occasionally I get mail from this list and
   from others that has HTML markup embedded within it.  What causes this?
 
 Netscape, for one.  It sends mail/news as html by default (and of course it
 won't tell you that.)

Actually, it's communicator 4.0 (beta) that does that.  The older versions
of netscape don't.  You can also turn this feature off from the preferences
menu.

I wonder if it's an oversight on Netscrape's part -- obviously, the right 
thing to
do was to make text mode the default -- or a [pitiful] attempt at MS marketing
strategies.  :-)

HTML in email

[Civ Kevin F. Havener]

A sort of novice question:

I read my mail with pine.  Occasionally I get mail from this list and 
from others that has HTML markup embedded within it.  What causes this?  
Is it the sender's mail-enabled browser's problem or is it a pine problem 
on the receiving end?  I sometimes use a mail-enabled browser and I 
wouldn't want to unintentionally foist this PITA feature on anyone else.

Curiously, I tried to forward a recent example of this back to this 
list for comment and when pine entered its edit mode--the html markup 
disappeared!  I don't know what it would have looked like to the list 
recipients if I had actually forwarded it with my questions/comments.  
I'd appreciate anyone's insight as to what's going on.

  Kevin

PS to Pete Templin:  Lets see if this post makes it to the list--thanks 
for all your help by the way.

However, it does have a different display.  If you set it to Text
instead of HTML you loose the formatting toolbar.
