*shrug* I'm on Thunderbird on Fedora. It's not like Linux doesn't
support HTML mail. Thunderbird will send it as a multi-part/related
content, which allows your email client to choose the one you like
best. I know pine, evolution, thunderbird, mutt, and SquirrelMail
support HTML, so your options are open.
However, I know not to send HTML email to the CLUE list. That's why I
chose "Send as text only". But, I mistakingly quoted the original
message which was HTML (and hit "send" too quickly. I meant to respond
to Patty, not the list as a whole). Apparently, when thunderbird quotes
HTML text in a text-only message, it looks fine in the compose window
but shows up as HTML source on the recipient-side. Well, you live and
learn.
So, I apologize for sending the wrong email to the list, and for quoting
a long email. Really, in the compose window it looked like normal text.
Maybe I should file a bug w/ thunderbird?
