Most object to the size difference (as much as ten times or even more) and
the security flaws. Viruses can't be imbedded in plain text, they have to
be sent as attachments (which most prudent people avoid) whereas viruses
and worms CAN be imbedded in HTML and passed unknowingly in a message
without the sender or receiver knowing it happened. HTML hogs bandwidth,
slowing down the mail servers, taking unneeded disk space, and generally
utilize resources unneeded for the purpose of the message - which is to
convey information.

| One more question before we leave this subject.
| What do people object to in HTML e-mail messages? I don't see
| any
| difference since I changed to plain text. Do you all see

| now?
