Personally - the only times that I ever want to send HTML mail are few and
far between and I can use Netscape for those times (like responding to
anonymous jerk threats and embedding html links that identify the IP address
in httpd logs when they read the mail). It's receiving HTML mail that I
occassionally want the ability.
Auth Send & SSL are rapidly becoming necessary.
