May I ask something about this HTML support?

Will it allow you to write HTML content? Also, when viewing a HTML
message, does it act just as a viewer only engine? I mean, will it only
render HTML code and not follow any external data (such as IMG tags to
show pictures and backgrounds).

If this is your choice, I applaud it... I think HTML is a great thing fo=
r
mail, since it allows to emphasize text and it's really useful when you
use email as a primary communication tool on a workgroup. 

I know most people on this list (but not outside this list) complain abo=
ut
HTML, and I respect that... But I think is something like to say 'hey, y=
ou
can write all your documentation stuff with a regular text editor... Why=

are you using a wordprocessor?  Of course, you have to take some securit=
y
considerations when adding this support, but you can easily forget about=

most of the security and privacy issues just no accessing any external
data such are images and backgrounds.
