Consensus opinion required - was 'more worms'

[Steve Holmes]

Since I've been using mutt to read my mail, I really haven't been
affected either way with HTML mail.  When I used pine, it was an
annoyance but no more than that.  But I think I would favor a blockage
of HTML mail since the reasons sighted below and some people still use
windows mailers on the list; so go for it!
