The preference *does* work, but many styled emails do not contain a plain-text alternative. You can always view source to see if the email has only styled or mime or base64 text. It used to be that short messages with only base64 encoding were a sure sign of spam, but now most plain-text messages I get are base64 encoded. Well, maybe not most, but certainly a LOT. -- The omnipotent eyesight of various supernatural entities is often remarked upon. It is said that they can see the fall of every sparrow.
