    aren't HTML posts more subject to problems for readers?

    Most people disable HTML in news readers because, depending how much of
    HTML and the extra stuff that can come along with it is implemented, it
    can represent a way malware can get in to your computer, just as an HTML
    web page can.

    You may be right _in news readers_ - because most people still using
    usenet are old codgers like us (-:.

    I'm pretty sure you'd be wrong to say "most" for _email_ - I think
    there, it'd probably be right to say that most don't even know what HTML
    is, let alone that some of their emails come in two versions or how to
    switch between them.

    Actually, in _news_, is there much HTML still in use? I can't remember
    when I last saw a _news_ post with an HTML part.
