An HTML message is a Web page enclosed in E-mail packets. You are doing the right thing by wanting to use plain text. Whoever sent you the message, however, was not doing the right thing. See my <http://www.rossde.com/internet/ASCII_mail.html> for why I think HTML-formatting does not belong in E-mail. See also the link on that page to "ASCII vs HTML E-Mail: Sizes and Errors." (in a box on the right). Before you dispute my position, read both Web pages completely. Otherwise, you will be arguing from ignorance. -- David E. Ross <http://www.rossde.com/>.
