Actually, Stephen I had no choice in the matter. The reply took the form of
the original senders stationary, so the original senders rudeness is still
at fault. I would gladly set the switch in Outlook to send EVERYTHING in
plain text but thus far the only one I have found only forces plain-text on
posts that I originate.
And please … no … I will not pay the added price for your favorite mail
reader. I am happy with Outlook. You may keep your Euthanasia … or what
ever it is called But I will gladly tell mine to not concatenate
another’s claptrap when I do a send, if I ever the god damn switch to set.

And of course here you posted this message with bandwidth-wasting
pretty printing. The good news is that there is an alternative
view that is test/plain:-)
(The message is multipart/alternative, with text/html and text/plain
alternatives. The text/html part has quite a log of XML verbosity
with the words “Microsoft Word” all over the place.)
