so, I'm reading on a mailing list this morning a message from someone who wants to (in his own words):

send out HTML based viral email (yes you heard right) which highlights this fact and ssks the recipient to do 2 things - firstly vote Renewable or Nuclear and secondly, send it on.


I and several others said "that's spam - don't do it". And he's getting very uppity, because the cause is something to do with building (or probably not building) nuclear power stations.

it's still spam though, isn't it ...

I don't mind HTML mail where HTML = live links
I hate it when HTML = images, backgrounds, fonts and junk

yeah, but you don't need HTML mail to do that. You can send a text e-mail - pretty much all clients understand an http link nowadays.
