Carolyn:
I am sure many people would have sent HTML if they were able to, if 
only because of default settings on their software that they hadn't 
noticed, so I think it must be banned ! The only place I have noticed 
an HTML option is in how you want your posts downloaded on joining a 
group. However, I don't think I've ever seen an option to post in 
this format.

For what its worth, Shaun Hately put up some intensive discussions of 
this issue on the Feedback list a while back - may be worth looking 
through, as he is another techie I think, and might have made some 
useful points.
