I feel your pain, but it amazes me that Outlook can't even handle an
email that is nothing but un-attached, no .vcf, plain-jane non-HTML
_text_. After all, the list won't allow anything else. I'm not sure
what he sent because I must have already deleted it, but Eudora
didn't blink.
(I use full-blown Outlook at work - corporate standard and all - and
I think I turned off HTML rendering in it.. I know I did when they
let me use Eudora at work.)
I'm preaching to the choir here, but the people who believe in HTML
email don't know what they're talking about. I use email because it's
compact, straightforward, simple. And it's fast - no graphics or
javascript effects to slow it down or be incompatible.
I like low-bandwidth. Maybe I'm a diehard ol' curmudgeon. :)
