Exactly, all this noise is just like preaching to the choir.  If you don't like it, take it up with the folks 
that have actually not written to the standards and make them fix it.

I'd personally like to see the HTML crap not put in email.  Folks here at work use the Outlook stationary 
crap and it practically doubles the size of a 1 sentence email.  (and then I have to justify why I need a 
bigger harddrive in my laptop).
