Yay - An even better idea...!

IBM do a plug-in for IE (and NS?) called TechExplorer - it lets your web 
browser interpret TeX directly, I think all mail clients should implement
the same "solution" so that we can have all use HTML-ised-TeX-mail(TM). 
that'll keep the weanies confused for years to come. But shit, Steve, I don't 
think TeX supports colour or flashing yellow on red... :-(
