No, I was just referring to Joel's mailer, since he was having trouble
with it.

Why not?  Do you enjoy not being able to read messages you receive?
I'm not saying you should, for example, *send* HTML messages (see
http://www.lemis.com/email.html for my view on that), but I still
think it makes sense to be able to handle them when you receive them,
and I would expect that a modern mailer should be able to handle *all*
of them.

Now if I could find one that could automatically unmangle Lookout!
messages...
