On the TFUG list it is expected, as a common courtesy, that all posts shall 
not be purely HTML as many members use pine/mutt text clients for reading 
email. I, myself, do use telnet to POP my mail on occasions when my regular 
client is unavailable.

That being said however, David's post (both infact), is properly formated 
multipart alternative, with a leading text/plain portion followed by an 
optional text/HTML format section. While not encouraged, I do not believe 
this is officially frowned upon.
