Indeed although sometimes it is better to have the image "in Line" rather
than forcing the recipient to open it in another application.
for the same reason a pet hate of mine is a memo sent as an attached
document when it could simply have been the body of the text.
I try to use the right format & the right time (& I do not claim to be
perfect at this) & limit my HTML emails to when they will benefit the
intended recipient ( A knowledge of the intended recipient helps in
making this choice).
a news group is not the place for HTML
