RE: HTML formatted email

["Andy Nolen-Parkhouse" <aparkhouse@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

If you're referring to the 'return receipt' feature, I believe that this
functionality is embedded in the message header and could be present
with or without HTML.

There are also some HTML tricks, such as embedding 'invisible' links to
web sites in your message, which can transmit information to the sender
without your knowledge.  This could not happen with text.
