I concur.... Those using MS-Express and Netscape (and others that
allow user to use html and fonts in their email) as their e-mail clients
have the option of turning off this type formatting.
Another list I subscribe to has their email server set to
automatically delete all incoming attachments before they go out to the list.
Maybe the LUG server can do this?
