I read your articles, however I still want to <br>send HTML emails. All my friends are on Windows and that is
what<br>they send me. Kmail does display the message fine and it will<br>forward the HTML email fine provided it is sent as an attachment.<br>However everybody wants their email address removed before the<br>email is forwarded. Kmail can not modify the HTML email before it<br>is forwarded. Because of this I have all my friends send their<br>message to Both Linux and Windows, that way if I want to forward<br>the message I can edit it on Windows before I forward it. It would<br>seem you want to protect me from myself. What I like about Linux<br>it that it just does what I tell it without a lot of "do you know what<br>you are doing questions". What would be wrong with an option that<br>would allow people like to shoot themselves in the foot if they want<br>to? :) :)<br><br>Fedora 6 Kmail 1.9.6<br><br>BTW I'm just don't have the time to convert HMTL emails I receive <br>to a website.<br><br>All the
