I don't like HTML mail, but I doubt that the general public is aware of what is "beneficial". I go so far as to say the general public is not capable of making an informed decision. This is because the general public thinks that Outlook is synonymous with "email". Point in case: I fixed a friend's computer a few days ago, he couldn't log in. Being jovial, he said I could use his (pay-per-minute) internet access to check my email with the same provider - but I would have to change the settings in Outlook back afterwards! I checked my email using telnet and pine, not even touching Outlook, and he was majorly confused. ;-) What I have been advocating for a while is computer education in junior high. You need a licence to drive a car, and the internet is more difficult than that. Why is there no compulsory education in computing in any country? -- Cheers, Thomas. Moderator der deutschen The Bat!
