I am the king of the Luddites.

I just realized that I don't know how to send HTMLified email. Not from webmail-ish clients, anyways.

I sort of slot it in the same bin as knowing how to dissect a mammalian corpse. You might never be called on to do it, though there are sick fucks who do it for fun, but there may come a time in your life when the knowledge is damn necessary.

Edit: I feel slightly better. It turns out Squirrelmail doesn't support inline HTML, at least not by default (there's a plugin we don't seem to have installed), so the fact that I couldn't figure out how to do it is not on the path leading directly to cries of YOU DARN KIDS GET OFF MY LAWN!.

I've been told I'd probably like mutt better than pine, and may start shifting over to that eventually. elm is no longer officially supported, but it still works. Can't stand pine. I use Outlook at work, and when I absolutely need to do non-text mail at home there's always my mac.com account (although I try to only use it to send to trusted sorts, one of the benefits it has for me is that there's no spam on it yet).
