Email format: html vs txt vs both


wakabayashi

Question

What type do you use in this settings? In the past I had it on "both". But then I noticed, that most user get/answer the html and a few the txt version.

Is there any risk if I just chose html? Will the guys, who received txt before, receive html or nothing at all?

Text mail is still the safest way to handle email. No automatic execution of anything, no obfuscated links.

Looking at what non-commercial people do with email: they write text and attach documents/images/files. Nothing which would require HTML. That's why my email client is set to text only and those mails containing nothing but "your client is broken, read here..." usually get ignored.

Text-only mails with PDF attachment for delivery slips / invoices / other documents is actually a good idea, IMHO. Efficient and safe.
