    Yes, and it's just about exactly the same process for netscape. Go
to the address book, choose the recipient, uncheck the box for "prefers
to receive html messages". And, if you wish, go into "edit, preferences,
mail & newsgroups, formatting" and choose plain text. Also you can go
into "messages" under the same menu and choose how you want your quoting
to be set up. 
    Pretty simple stuff, not exactly rocket science, and I'm sure anyone
who can't figure it out on their own can easily find someone local to
help. 
   I can also give you the eudora settings if need be, at least for a
mac, and I could probably remember windoze pegasus settings as well.
