Dear Tony,
Do you know how long it took to get key bindings into Pine?
Also the silly thing will do html by chain loading lynx or something.
I just think that html mail is a pain, and stand in the way of
communication.
That said, thanks for noticing
Regards,
The missing link.

You do realize of course that darn near every email program in common use other
than Pine/Alpine will correctly handle HTML emails these days...
I wasn't a fan either, but the world seems to have pretty much embraced them.

Dear Josh,
Unicode I can handle. I just do not like HTML mail.

My browser reads HTML. My email system reads ASCII email.
It's 2009. If your email can't handle HTML (even if it's better not to
use it, for good reasons), or if your email system can't handle Unicode,
then maybe you should upgrade. â~º
