I'll survive it either way. :) GMail appears to accept MIME, and I can see embedded MIME tables, etc., but the non-text stuff doesn't survive the reply-quoting process very well. Actually, given that the output of the quoting process is very usable indented plain text, I think Google did a very good job considering that GMail is a free service from a commercial, for-profit company. -- Don Wilde **************************************************** * What is the Internet of Things but a system * * of systems including humans? * ****************************************************
