[pmmail-list] A compromise: Was Re: Please, No More Discussion Of Html! [Was: Info About

[Chris Ayers]

All,

We have people here who are fervently pro-HTML e-mail.  We also have people 
here who are just as fervently anti-HTML e-mail.  (Including myself!  <g>)  
Might I suggest the following compromise.

Make the processing of HTML e-mail a user-selectable option for each account.  
Personally, I really don't care if it is enabled or disabled by default.  It 
would not take that long to either enable it or disable it.

The one thing I do not want to see is the start of another pro vs con HTML 
e-mail thread like the one that was here a while ago.  I finally set a filter 
to delete those messages.  The "discussion" (if you want to call it that) was 
not convincing any of the communicators and was, IMHO, very disheartening to 
see.  Please, let us all try to keep things civil this time.

Thanks,
Chris
