Howdy,

I try to be helpful and polite when posting to this list.  I consider it 
rude to send mail to a Linux list from a machine running Outlook.

I have sworn off non-free software and have found ways to make just 
about everything I need to get done with Linux.

Sitting in front of a networked NT machine at work is cruel abuse and 
should rank with a civil rights violation.  Sometimes I must log in and 
perform a few small Linux miracles just to shake it off upon arriving home.

My Outlook settings on that miserable NT machine allow me to send only 
plain text to everyone.

Hope that doesn't sound rude or unfriendly,
