I have not been on a list yet that hasn't insisted on plain text only
posting. I think it is a good idea for a lot of reasons and I'd just as
soon not have dynamic content poping up in my face while I am trying to read
messages. For getting help and discussing technical aspects and content,
the less flash, the better. Besides, with html content who would want to
see little smiley faces out of semicolons, hyphens and parentheses. ;-)

I just added it today at http://www.flalug.org/list.html as an advisement.
