Especially with the amount of traffic this list receives lately, I for
one simply ignore HTML-formatted mails by now (too lazy to zoom in and
out all the time). Same if the context of a mail is so messed up that I
twist my brain trying to decypher it.

I believe that if only a few competent people on this list do the same,
the amount of such "wrong" postings would be significantly reduced in no
time...
