Not just the standard ones, and that is what is so wrong. There should
at least be a warning upon sending of messages containing the
non-standard ones that they may not come out right in the viewer's mail
client. Maybe asking to send as HTML (yuck) instead so that the receiver
can read the mail the way the sender intended it.
