I think HTML is perfectly acceptable when it conveys extra
information... In this case, it would have been hard to see what was
modified in the test when viewed in the archives, unless it came in a
fixed width font. It's not as though Chip used a garish foreground or
background color, or made the text 20 point...

Oh no? Ordinary text in bright cyan on black, unvisited hypertext links
in almost invisible dark blue on black by default, and left-hand quote
marks also almost invisible (and I'm using the same mailer as he does,
though probably with more "standard" colour defaults) and you don't call
it garish? He could at least have left the colours undefined (so the
reader's default colours would apply) or if that was regarded as
inapplicable, set them to something more "ordinary" in HTML, such as
black foreground and white background. (Yeah, I've noticed there are
people who raise the hue and cry whenever "blinding white" background,
as they call it, is used, but white [#FFFFFF] is the default background
in most GUI browsers if you don't change it, so IMHO it ought not to be
regarded as "abnormal".)
Best regards,
Tony.
