Remember that when you ask a question in HTML and the person that really
knows the answer does even read it because he is too "time straped" to
sort the message from the decorations.


While I can't say I answer that many questions here, I am one of those troublesome users that refuses to read HTML email, even though my client (KMail or Firefox/Horde, depending on where I'm at) supports it. [I turn support off, as both a security precaution and personal preference.]

I don't even read HTML replies to my own questions. I figure anyone that won't turn off HTML for mailing list posts couldn't possibly provide me with any useful information. ;)

How is HTML a security risk? JavaScript could be, I suppose, but HTML?
