When you subscribed to this list, you must have read the rules
for it at

http://list.akopia.com/mailman/listinfo/interchange-users

It says that the list moderator doesn't accept html mail and
flames.

No offense, this is not a flame - just a reminder. BTW, if it 
is or if it is not a standard is not that important, there
are a lot of annoying standards we unfortunately sometimes
can't avoid to live with. :-)

BTW, it is also a nice "standard" to cut off the tail of
posts which only repeat previous posts and add nothing
new contentwise. It bloats digests, takes space and repeats
too often things we just had better read only once.
