I understand HTML when people send commercial newsletters or official goverment letters, but when every folk on a planet uses HTML only to send a message in red (or whatever) just to say "Hello, how are you?" it is unacceptable and stupid. It costs bandwidth, PC HDD space, email server HDD space, more CPU processing power to parse stupid <font color="red"></font> etc. And the numbers are huge. On the one hand I blame Microsoft that they enabled HTML by default in their so popular mail clients. But also I blame you - tech savy users - who think that this is the way to go. -- Best regards, Vilius ________________________________________________________ Current beta is 3.99.21 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
