No, I feel that html messaging should be allowed as
that's the current
standard for sending mails.
Could you send us a link to this standards document?
If mailman could take the html messages and send them
as an attachment.
This more than doubles the size of the message.
The question that still remains is what does one gain by sending html
mail and does it outweigh the costs of html mail?
We have 740 members on this list. For every 3kB mail sent to the list
(yours was 4kB), 2.2MB of mails are sent out from the list server. This
doesn't just clog our link, it contributes to the clogging of all links
everywhere. Doesn't anyone care about that?
This vote is declared closed. All suggestions have been considered,
results will be posted in a separate mail.
