Outlook also sends things like vbs viruses and other bad things without
your being aware of it.  ;)  Outlook is a bad offender for doing many
"embrased and extended" standard things without telling you.  However,
HTML-encoded e-mail is pretty much the standard now.  If there's an
option, great.  We'll just have to live with it it.  My e-mail client,
pine, seens to decode HTML decently (in fact, I wasn't aware that any of
the mail on this list was in HTML!).  Time to update some of the older
Unix mail programs.

Can plain 7-bit ascii e-mail support languages other than english?  Is
there an SMTP header to specify this?  Just curious.
