Signing attempt

[Craig White]

I think that you missed the point. When you claim that the messages are
empty, you are complaining about a symptom that very few people on this
message board can agree with...only the ones that use the Microsoft
Outlook Express. Even Outlook 2000 sees these messages properly (I
checked). While you make an unfounded statement that 90% of the world
uses Outlook Express and therefore, it is the standard - that clearly
doesn't apply to this message base. 

There are in fact standards and Microsoft didn't create them and chooses
to follow them or not follow them and in fact handles them differently
depending upon whether you are using their throwaway mail client (OE) or
their revenue mail client (Outlook). I believe the argument used by the
Attorney General's office was that they 'embrace, extend, extinguish' as
they have done with Internet Explorer and are trying to do with their
own proprietary email formats.
