Solving the Problem of HTML Mail

For those of us on dial-up, it is not clear why we need to load an entire page to read each comment. I suggest, for greater usability, that the first 512 characters of comments appear in wide tabular form, with Read More links for long diatribes.

As for HTML mail, I detest it, but use Outlook for the usual reasons. I disable the preview pane and delete ANYTHING not personal. If something slips through, ZoneAlarm keeps the spamsites uninformed and my junkmail filter does the rest.

I think this is the biggest 'bang for the buck' for lazy folks if you are trapped by the Beast.
