Yes, much better. I believe that 'rich text' is essentially HTML,
although I might be mistaken. I know that 'GMail' users have that
problem all the time. Of course 'GMail' users have lots of other
problems also.
Erik has actually been posting messages as "multipart/alternative",
where the message is included in both 7-bit plaintext *and* HTML, the
idea being that the mail viewer itself can pick the format it knows
best. You are simply using a mail reader which prioritizes HTML;
perhaps it has a setting to let you prefer plaintext?
