I think that HTML mails are a bad habbit. (But I think they are not allowed in this list anyway, AFAIK HTML mails are blocked by the list server, at least there was some discussion to do this several month ago, and I haven't recognized a HTML mail in this listz since then)
I accept reply below, above or inline as a matter of taste. Personally I prefer reply above, but use sometimes inlined replies. I think that the original post should be stripped to the minimum that is needed to understand the answer. I very much dislike posts that contain complete threads of previous mails. I can accept big sigblocks. Many of us are using company accounts and have to obey company rules. I can't accept querys as answers to unrelated threads. In this list are few users that do that, but some of them are resistant to any remarks on that topic.
