But what does it matter what _you_ want? Other people want other things,
and they have every right to. Who are you to be legislating for everyone
else? just an out-of-date old-timer, that's all. Poof.

I like nicely formatted text and am grateful to people who take the trouble.
Naturally if they have good taste (which is probably about 50% subjective)
it's better than if they don't.

I get pretty tired of your sort of puritanism, if you really want to know
(which I'm quite sure you don't). Do you throw away letters (snail mail)
unread which have a letterhead? What foolishness. Do you tell your mail
correspondents that unless they revert to a monospaced-font manual
typewriter you're going to throw out their letters and never correspond with
them again? What boorish arrogance. I bet you don't. But here you are doing
the same thing for email.

Live and let live. May a hundred flowers bloom.
