Personally I prefer plaintext because my mail client handles plain text much better than HTML, and replying to any feedback will involve sending e-mail, so plain text ends up being far easier all around. If I get an HTML document to reply to I'll either end up working around my mail client's wacked HTML parsing or just serialise the HTML to plain text using a Web browser and then treat it as plain text anyway. -- Ian Hickson U+1047E )\._.,--....,'``. fL http://ln.hixie.ch/ U+263A /, _.. \ _\ ;`._ ,.
