Yes, as I mentioned elsewhere in this thread, the current version of Kmail 
defaults to 
sending both plain text and HMTL parts for every email.

Also, as I mentioned elsewhere in this thread, this is not a discussion about 
the merits of 
HTML vs plain text.  As long as emails to the mailing list contain a plain text 
part, I know of 
no problem caused by them also containing an HTML part, which the receiving MUA 
is 
welcome to ignore.

Yes, the original email I sent starting this discussion was not wrapped at any 
column.  I did 
so so that everyone can see how their MUAs render such emails.

All of the subsequent emails I have sent as part of this discussion have been 
wrapped at 
80 characters inline with the current mailing list code of conduct.

I feel that it is important I follow the current code of conduct as I advocate 
for its change.
