OT: Horror Story

[keith smith]

That would make a good article for the PLUG website.  I'm not sure may of us knew about multipart emails, I know I didn't.

My mail client parses multipart messages just fine. If there were a
text-only part I wouldn't have been faced with a nasty HTML message. I'm
sure many people here are sending multipart with both text and html and
I have no trouble with those at all.

I was wrong to use the word "freaking" in my message. I apologize.

HTML-only email is not polite on a general mailing list. No flames. I'd
just like to make those very few people using HTML-only that not
everyone wants to see that. It's a simple matter to pick the "Both"
option in your mail program, and then everyone is happy. :)
