How stupid are you. Linux is far ahead of mico$not in mail technology.

This is Usenet not mail.

You missed the point. It is _stupid_ to waste Usenet bandwidth and
storage with posting the text and a copy of the text _with html_.

Not to mention the people who have to pay by the downloaded byte and
others who have download quotas on how much can be downloaded from
their news server.

Some of the subject matter experts have filters to automatically drop
posts containg html. Why cut yourself off from their expertise by
posting with html.
