Dear browser-spoiled members:

PLEASE SWITCH THIS DARN HTML-CODING OFF!!!!

It simply doesn't belong in email, as it makes every message more 
than twice as large, even far worse with short messages.
This is a burden on Steve's server load, bandwidth and every members 
PC.

On my homepage you can find a chapter how to deal with this annoying
HTML crap for most browsers (for crying out loud get yourself a real
email client instead of these all-in-one browser toys, mediocre for
everything, good for none....it is not just silly noise with email,
but also with news/Usenet):
