It's all a part of the evolution Scott. There has been whining about 
bandwidth since 300 baud modems started carrying the mail. Some folks are 
perfectly happy with simple text based Apps and OS's, but the rest of the 
world moved on some time go. So must the internet. I appreciate your asking, 
but I for one am not going to turn off MS Outlook's nifty formatting. I see 
it as quite an improvement to e-mail. I hope the rest of the world follows 
suit.
