I had a BSD-geek friend whose area of specialty was in deploying and maintaining mail servers on that platform. He had always been an advocate for plain-text emails. He was also a single guy who had sex with his dog, so he wasn't emailing pictures to his grandma.

Personally, I think evolving email into HTML has always been a foregone conclusion regardless of the inconvenience it causes to an extreme minority. Plus, I like the convenience of sending photos to grandma and checking her email is all she has the aptitude for anyway.

Long live HTML mail!

I really hope you meant "sex like a dog" or something with that anecdote.
