Hi all...a little tip: Please note that choosing to receive emails in plain text format eliminates the possiblility of viruses embedded within the HTML code as a script (VB or JavaScript), from what I understand. You can also choose to refuse any unsigned scripts with a virus checking software. (The homemade scripts with no "signature" can be a virus.) For what it may be worth (I am not an expert in viruses, by any means.)
