May I reiterate the call? A fair number of recent emails have shown up

So, please use plain text in emails if you want to be read.
Hear, hear. Try View Source on a HTML or RT message - tag soup, with 
croutons! We spend so much energy on Standards for our sites - how 
about applying the principals to mail? The messages will be smaller, 
quicker - everyone will benefit, not the least the list admin!

Thanks - Nick
