I have no control over whether your receiving-end MUA just displays all text as plain text, vs. whether it pays attention to the [html markup] stuff in the HTML version of the message. I am (usually) sending messages from gmail.com, and the little gizmo features they provide, for when composing a message, do allow for stuff like font size and color, and also stuff like bold, underlined, and italic. so YMMV... ("technically", gmail features offer only four font sizes: small, normal, large, and HUGE; so I think that "half a dozen" [mentioned by someone... Kevin Borwn?] > half a dozen different font sizes was either some bug somewhere, or an exaggeration...) > Is there a reason your emails have half a dozen different font sizes in the text? As for why I might sometimes go overboard on trying to make use of such features, (("just 'cause they are available")), that is something that, I guess, I will have to ponder. Maybe I have too much "free" time on my hands today? (get it? - Independence Day... Free as in Freedom...) I guess I should really try to watch it, especially when writing for a wide and varied (& esteemed) audience... Thanks, -- Mike Schwartz Glendale AZ schwartz@acm.org Mike.L.Schwartz@gmail.com
