On the other hand I am curious: When I use html it is mostly when I use either 1. Mathematical symbols, and equations or 2. Tables I generate the corresponding html mail, with org-mime-htmlize and I am not aware that this function has such a highlighting functionality, which leads me to the question: Do you know about a lisp function or package which indeed implements that? Another problem with this approach is, that still, not all mail reader (most likely mutt) do not fully support html mail, at least last time I tried, which was, I admit, some time ago. > Both approaches are equally fundamentally broken in their premise, but > the latter is at least easy ignorable recipient-side. I am not sure I understand, why you consider the use case of replying to several recipient with the same mail, as fundamentally broken?
