Yuki:

I changed the subject line to coincide with the subject matter. Just
curious: educate me a bit. What's wrong with receiving mail in HTML format
besides the added byte-size of the message? I kinda like seeing responses in
different colors; to me, HTML is preferred rather than plain text. Is it for
security reasons? Is HTML more virus-threatening? Thanks.
