Re: HTML formatted email

["Steve Richter" <srichter@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

why the problem with html email?

does it not enable better formating of the msg?  fonts, bullets, blocking,
...

are there email clients that dont read html email?  shouldn't they?

I use outlook express with html on.  should I turn it off?

thanks,
Steve Richter
