Hi Laura,

I saw the referred-to email as plain ASCII, but I am a wierdo and use KMail
:) There were a bunch of gifs and other things attached to the message.

You make a good point though - for people whose "advanced" mail clients
render all these little rich mail annoyances visible, it is not a pleasant
thing.

My suggestion is that we all try to stick to plain text wherever possible.

Cheers, Andrew
