Plain Text Emails

The safest way to send or read e-mail is Plain Text. We recommend everyone make the changes necessary to only read e-mail in Plain Text format. If you find you want to view the message in HTML (assuming you know the e-mail is valid) you can follow the instructions for enabling HTML, etc.
