I have had the same experience. I'm in an organisation that uses Outlook throughout and I've yet to have anybody complain that my emails are somehow not correct. I have had the odd person remark on my not top-posting but this has nothing to do with HTML. As an aside, I've been using email since the days when UUCP was used to transfer emails by phone line from one Unix system to another ;-) Does anybody else here remember the ! email addressing? -- : Eric S Fraga, GnuPG: 0xFFFCF67D : in Emacs 25.0.50.1 + Ma Gnus v0.12 + evil-git-bdeb602 : BBDB version 3.1.2 (2014-05-06 11:45:08 -0500)
