I didn't know that. This reduces my tolerance for HTML mail even in the multipart case. The problem there is that the sender is potentially seeing something different from what the receiver is seeing, depending on the quality of the sender's MUA. Not amusing. So multipart might be OK, but expect people trying to help you to get very confused. Cheers - t
