And people waste more "bandwidth" than HTML email could ever dream of by rehashing this crap every other day. The bandwidth that email uses, HTML or not is *nothing* compared with *every other activity one does online*. If you don't want HTML email, deal with it on your own and leave the rest of us out of your useless crusade. Shake your fist at the kids on the lawn all you like, just shut the hell up about it. > Time to drop this thread as we are getting nowhere with it. Pointing out that this quote indicates James "gets it" and this admonishment isn't directed at him. It's directed at the rest of you whiners who can't shut the hell up about HTML email and how it gets your knickers in a knot. -- Chris -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
