    I appreciate the comment, but I really hate it when people respond with,
"your way is bad, my way is better, so I'm not going to answer your question
and pull this off-topic". ;-)

    I already use a text mode mailer. That is knowledge I have, and doing it
again would teach me nothing, and defeat the purpose of exploring other
possiblities. 

    I often do things just to learn.
