I often read about the evils os HTML email and since I do all my email with mutt now, I appreciate text email. But something I don't understand is the argument that it slows down the internet for everyone. Isn't HTML just text? The tags are evaluated and formatted at the client. So is it just that there is more text than there needs to be? Or is it the links and scripts that are often included? I'd like to be more informed as I operate in an office full of windows users who like to format everything in sight. -- Michael Montagne [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.boora.com
