PM: It was never intentional on my part ... I started using PMMail back
with OS/2 in the mid-nineties too but never encountered the "problem",
I guess. I still run OS/2 Warp4 with all the updates but don't happen
to use it for email.

It can't be "started" with me in any case.  I don't see any difference
off or on.  Happy to help reduce the problems out there.  Besides, from
all I read on this list, HTML doesn't work very well in PMMail anyway. 
No loss here....
