There's three reasons people knee-jerk against HTML email:I'm using one right now...
1. It isn't ASCII (i.e. the "Back in my day a child would open up a gift and within seconds he'd either burst into flames or lose a limb! That's the way it was and we liked it!"[1] Defense). 2a. There isn't an email program alive which can do a "Reply" to an HTML email properly.
You can't blame everything on your choice to use Outlook.2b. ...especially those which support VT-100 terminals. 3. The lines are longer than 80 characters ;-).
I fall under category 2a, but my knee isn't jerking: If Outlook didn't absolutely s*ck *ss at "editing" HTML I wouldn't care.
