I believe all reflectors accept plain text only. In my opinion you should
only use plain text in your email messages as a courtesy and consideration
for the recipient. The HTML format can contain viruses.

When I compose email in HTML, and use the font I usually do, the message
gets sent out in both HTML and normal text.  The Reflector relays only the
normal text.  It doesn't do HTML.  So, unless I control the line length of
the HTML text it'll go way over the edge
in the normal text version.   Better if I don't compose in
HTML, but I do use it a lot in other applications.  Some screens are set for
a fixed character count, and you'll often see lines folded back, and hard to
read.  Like this message, the Reflector will relay the normal text version,
and discard the HTML version.  Here is the next line without me controling
the length, and it's not folded back:
THE QUICK BROWN FOX JUMPED OVER THE LAZY DOG'S BACK 1234567890 TIMES.
