I was about to "second" Allison, but I'll "third" John instead since he
beat me to it :-)
I don't mind the bandwidth (though I might if HTML became more common),
it's just that it's a nuisance to read HTML (or anything with
"alternate-part"s) in another window, so I just skip over it with the
delete key. And my non-Microsoft mailers on no-M$ OSs don't handle some of
their more execrable alternatives anyway. As far as I'm concerned, email
is an ASCII (or perhaps ISO-8859-X) medium.
