We don't add irritation - it's already there. Btw, maybe time to bug your friends at google that an option to turn off html postings for the GMail android app would be nice ;) That said, filtering any non text/plain mail into spam keeps me off most spam. Thus be warned when you try to get patches in non text/plain sent to me ;) I strongly prefer to keep the restriction in place. Richard. > > Diego.
