HTML

[John Ross]

Hi Phil,
I remember that when I set up my system once, I was asked the question, "did
I want to send my mail HTML or plain, or both".  To cover all bets I might
have said both. I can't find where I did this though, to check.
Does this mean that some people receive doubles?
I had assumed that the receivers server, would pick up the one that applied
to him.
To my knowledge, I have not received doubles.
Regards,
