Re: Plain Text vs Html

Hi to everybody,

IMHO all posts should normally be inline (unless it's a general
statement like this one), and the unrelevant parts of the original
mail removed (another poster has mentioned "communication efficiency")
and having to read deeply nested/quoted mail conversations can become
awkward after a while.

So, the main point surely is not storage anymore, but rather making it
easy to spot the main points. The longer and deeply nested/quoted an
email conversation gets, the more difficult it gets.

Just include the relevant parts of a mail and make it easier for
everybody.
