Hej Karel!

 KK> As you mentioned "email" I wrote about smtp more than about
 KK> fidonet.

Ah!  The only reason I brought it up was because it was a very good example of
what goes wrong when pure text (email) gets overrun by html (webmail).

 KK> my preferred editor can not handle conversion easily

Which editor?  I am using vim, which happens to be the same editor I use for
email, which makes it handy.

 KK> and of course 3) missing know how on my side.

That one is a real pickle given that few, if any these days, are following the
published standard for the packed MSG format.

 KK> But I can live with that.

Speaking for myself, I am getting too old for this.  Good thing I started when
I did since I seriously doubt I'd be able to decipher it now, nevermind
actually do something about it.

Het leven is goed,
Maurice
