<sigh>...no, not at all. But, for all the reasons that people on the
internet, me included, pick to flog people over, HTML email is a big one,
and one that I don't agree with the flogging. (don't' get me wrong, a public
beating's fun, but not for this.) And I see people really only get one side
of that story, namely, BADBADBADHTMLEMAILBAD.

I agree with your points on the disadvantages of color, but I still see a
use for it. There are a lot of things that HTML email gives you outside of
color, that's all I was trying to point out. If it came out as hostile, that
wasn't my intent, and I'm sorry.
