With nothing to fix then you are doomed to read crummy, poorly formatted emails.  Even 
If I found a way to both A) send messages you found easy on the eyes & B) use the 
editor that I prefer there would still be millions of other folks sending you email 
inconsiderately formatted.

I'm sure we all know this is in the end like arguing religion. We may end up actually 
getting emotional about it even thought there's nothing we can do to convert everybody 
else to do what's "right".
