I would AMEN what Clay has said. Personally, my email system allows for
reading MIME emails but because of my aging eyes I do have great difficulty
reading some of them. I especially have a problem when the background is
something other than white. Occasionally I get a message with a gray
background and it is extremely difficult for me to read.
