It's bad netiquette to send HTML to mailing lists in general. It hoses
up digests and archives, and some people don't have HTML capable clients.

Some mail clients send both plain text and html, which isn't quite so
bad since the receipient / archiving software can pick out the plain
text version, but clients that send HTML ONLY should be avoided. Check
to see if you can configure your mail service to use plain text and that
should fix things.
