Hi Milan, indeed spacing without capital letters is tricky. W i t h C a p i t a l L e t t e r s the space between words at least is noticeable in a CamalCase style, without it r e q u i r e s w e a k w o r k a r o u n d s , but such extra spaces between words might not get proper formatted in HTML, so it could look strange for multipart emails. IIRC some MUAs notice __double "_", "*" and "/" to format plain text__ automagically. Some users _tend_to_use_an_underscore_ between each word. I guess correct is usage of the **double asterisk** to simulate bold text, but I prefer a _single underscore_ at the beginning and the end of a group of words, since the asterisk is also used for things like *lol*, *hug* etc. and using a double underscore does look overstated without auto-formatting of plain text. IIRC a double "_" is for underline, a double "/" for italic and a double "*" for bold, by MUAs that format plain text automagically. I might be mistaken, since text attributes for editing Wikis and forum postings could be _italic_, *italic*, __bold__, **bold**, `monospace` or similar, too. However, CAPITAL LETTERS ONLY are for boot camps.
