HTML Email
I loathe HTML email for many reasons. Privacy and security are two. A Google search for “html email security” returned about 328,000,000 results and “html email privacy” returned about 2,010,000,000 results. That’s billions, folks.
For me, it’s one of those “just because you can doesn’t mean you should” things. I just analyzed a corpus of 4267 messages, a mixture of personal and marketing, looking for image references. One message contained 343 references to images.
