True, but I do try to "go with the flow" here.  I use Seamonkey for my
email.  I went to "Edit" and "Preferences" then chose "Send formats".  I
place gentoo.org in the text only section.  What else can I do to make
sure it sends it correctly?  I do prefer to send it text only since some
do use some strange email programs.
