As this will be, it was sent using X-Mailer: EarthLink Zoo Mail 1.0 with Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8 The string "Content-Type: multipart" is absent from his message. The only place on Earthlink's web mail site I can find that addresses HTML vs. plain text is in the "Message Display" section of "Preferences", where the label is HTML Message View with description " Choose 'off' to view HTML messages as text. " which I have set to "off". That said, the page I'm composing on has a link "Use the new WebMail" I'm not going to click on it and risk not being able to get back to using plain text. I suppose that may be what Dan's using and he hasn't figured out how to not send in HTML. I can't imagine Dan continuing to choose to use Earthlink web mail once the problems this thread is about have been solved. It's a poor UI, like Yahoo and all other web mail I've ever had to fall back on. -- "Wisdom is supreme; therefore get wisdom. Whatever else you get, get wisdom."

After rereading after sending I figured someone would think "will be" would be meant to apply to both, but I did not, and as you found, only Zoo Mail, not HTML, was used. I first checked an email I sent via Zoo Mail to another list a week ago after finding I had locally purged the message I wished to reply to. :-) -- "Wisdom is supreme; therefore get wisdom.
