motion to ban mime posts

[John Corbishley]

I would be happy to do this but I need help from some of you boffins.  I
have MS Outlook Express and have my outgoing messages set to "Plain Text"
rather than HTML.  However when I look at my Plain Text Settings I see that
it is set to Mime format.  The other choice is "Uuencode".  Is this the
preferred setting?

TIA

John Corbs
