My mail client (Apple Mail 2.553) shows Chris' mail in what looks like 
the MIME encoded source so perhaps even turning off HTML won't help. 
Apple Mail does handle HTML e-mail but it looks like something else is 
wrong with the structure of the note. There is someone else on these 
list that also sends unreadable mail but I cannot recall who--I usually 
just discard unreadable mail.

The e-mail headers from Chris' note do not include an X-Mailer record 
(neither does yours BTW) so I can't tell what mail client he uses. 
Perhaps it has something to do with:

X-Mimetrack: Serialize by Router on d01ml001/01/M/Mohawk(Release 5.0.11 
|July 24, 2002) at 01/31/2004 10:11:17 AM

or

X-Content-Filtered-By: Mailman/MimeDel 2.1.4

which I don't see in anyone else's mail headers.
