I've noticed too that a lot of people are beginning to send HTML-coded
mail. Which I don't bother to read AT ALL. FWIW I'm using a MIME-compliant
mailer (PINE 3.93) but I don't want to fire up Netscape, tremendous
memory hogger that it is, just to read mail. Other people might love
Netscape, but it does hell to background compiles with its memory-hogging
ways..
