You'd think a :person could specify what type messages (easily) to each person :individually instead of as a whole. you would, wouldn't you...? *sigh* we used ie4 for all of 2 weeks, and during that time killing html mail entirely was what we wanted. you can, though, turn it on again for individual *mails* in the properties for that mail, whilst you compose it. what you can't do is set it at any grain 'twixt the twain. -- Communa (together) we remember... we'll see you falling you know soft spoken changes nothing to sing within her...
