For keeping spam out, it is much more useful to not allow non-members
to post to the list. And that is something I am certainly not going to
change...

HTML mail on the mailinglist (was: Re: [MSX] New MSX from Argentinia (Homecomputer Collection))

2005-02-22 Thread Wynke Stulemeijer

Hi,

I have just allowed (manually) a mail from Jetze Mellema to the list,
one that has both a HTML and a plaintext version of the body. The way
the mailing list is set, these mails are normally filtered out, as
nothing other than plain text is allowed.

So what I was wondering is if there is anyone on the list who really
wants to be able to post in HTML (rather than set their mail client to
plain text), and if there is anyone who really doesn't want to receive
HTML e-mail. I have been looking at the options, and it *might* be
possible (although I am not sure yet) to convert HTML mails to plain
text rather than just reject them - how would people feel about that?

Wynke.

For email I prefer text-only... since HTML mails mostly add much extra 
non-useful garbage to it...

That would be a good option, because HTML e-mail is *evil* :P
