I replied to a message yesterday and read that message today as

any html coding in the message source. I guess the e-mail reader is
translating the source into html.
This is a function of your mail reader. I think that it can be
turned off and I refer you to the help included with your mail reader
on how to do this, as I like the 'smileys'.
Thanks, Jin. I do not mind the 'smileys' in the least. Rather, the
appearance of the graphical in what I thought was a text message
startled, and raised concerns in my mind about sending unintended html
messages to the list.
The smiley isn't the only thing. You may also notice that Thunderbird
makes text appears as bold if between asterisks, like *this*. Links also
appear as html links, and usually work as such, even in a text message.
These are just the ones I noticed.
