If you know what your doing, not everyone does.

Again not everyone is tecnosavy enough to know what one setting does -vs-
another setting, I know of one case on a list that used plaintext, that no
matter what setting was used, the company had full control, and the output
was html only, this case went on for about 4-6 weeks before the person is
question finaly had to give up and quit the list, because a few people kept
getting on his back about the html.

Oh, you mean like how Yahoo attaches an ad to the e-mail of people who use
them? I don't see how it's the falt of people when they have no control,
over what a third party does to e-mail. Yes, they could stop using third
party e-mail, but, then they may not have e-mail altogether.
