For what it is worth, I subscribe to the following philosophy:
"HTML email can impose costs on the recipient. Therefore HTML mail should be
an act between consenting parties. Unless you know that you are writing to
someone who does not mind HTML email, send plain text."
Our newsletter goes out weekly to over 4500 recipients world wide and if I
were to send it HTML, I'd be sifting through 4000 return emails with REMOVE
in the subject line
An excellent case against HTML email can be found here

This would be a good poll for Chuck Joiiner to do if he hasnĀ¹t already done
so.
