Turning Off HTML or MIME to use a Remailer System.

Index (5 topics)

There are now six main reasons for NOT doing this:

1. Many E-mail and Usenet News reader programs, usually the mail and news reader programs

that come with browser packages, allow users to include binary attachments (MIME or other

encoding) or HTML (normally found on web pages) within their E-mail messages. This

makes URLs into clickable links and it means that graphic images, formatting, and even

color coded text can also be included in E-mail messages. While this makes your E-mail

interesting and pretty to look at, it can cause problems for other people who receive your E-

mail because they may use different E-mail programs, different computer systems, and

different application programs whose files are often not fully compatible with each other.

Any of these can cause trouble with in-line HTML (or encoded attachments). Most of the

as the exact same type of file the recipient must have hardware and software that can read

3/13/17 2:19 PMConfiguring Mail Clients to Send Plain ASCII Text

Page 2 of 41http://cypherpunks.faithweb.com/nomime.html

that file. For example, if you attach a Microsoft Word file, and the recipient of your message

is using a word processor that can't open MS Word files, that person isn't going to be able to

open your attachment and they are less than likely to be very happy about it.

2. HTML or MIME messages are larger and more wasteful than simple text messages. Using

HTML or MIME in E-mail messages makes the messages larger in size by a mimimum of

two thirds to more than twenty times. These will take longer to download and they take up

more storage space than standard plain text E-mail messages.

E-mail storage is important because many people retain copies of messages they receive and

in the case of mailing list digests , the individual messages are combined in one large

4. Embedded HTML or MIME attachments are the number one method of spreading virus,

worm or Trojan programs.

For instance, the Forgotten worm was written in Visual Basic Script and spread without any

attachment. Instead, the worm code was embedded into the HTML formatted message body.

The I Love You worm program exploited an ActiveX vulnerability and was executed just by

viewing or previewing the e-mail message without opening any attachment.

Likewise, embedded code could exploit some MS Office vulnerability as with Office ODBC

Vulnerabilites and Specially Formed Script in HTML Mail can Execute in Exchange 5.5

HTML messages can trigger dialups to the Internet if they contain links to specific images

called "web bugs" that are used to track message and advertiser viewing. See Web Bug FAQ

Uncommon, but no less dangerous are file extensions (386, ACM, ACV, ADT, AX, BIN,

BTM, CLA, CPL, CSC, CSH, DEV, DLL, DOT, DRV, HLP, HTM, HTT, INF, INI, JSE,

JTD, MDB, MP#, MPP, MPT, MSO, OBD, OBT, OCX, OLE, OV#, PIF, PL, PM, POT,

PP#, PPS, PRC, RAR, RTF, SCR, SH, SHB, SMM, SYS, VSD, VSS, VST, VXD, WSF,

XL#, XLB, XTP).

5. HTML quickly fills the memory of PDAs (Personal Digital Assistants like the Palm Pilot). In

addition, many HTML messages are also completely unreadable on most PDAs.

6. Some e-mail recipients may have set their background to something other than white, may

3/13/17 2:19 PMConfiguring Mail Clients to Send Plain ASCII Text

Page 3 of 41http://cypherpunks.faithweb.com/nomime.html

have chosen a typeface which they find most readable and adjusted its size in accordance

with their visual acuity, normal viewing distance, monitor size and screen resolution. All this

E-mail correspondence and preferably not for personal E-mail unless the recipient is expecting it.

MIME encoded mail is generally used to send attachments that consist of pictures, sound files,

spreadsheets, word-processing documents, zip files, or other binary files to recipients that have and

use the same operating system, the same word processing program and a common E-mail program

such as Eudora, Pegasus, Netscape, or Outlook.

MIME attachments are not wanted on mailing lists, Usenet newsgroups postings, business E-mail

correspondence, and preferably not for personal E-mail unless the recipient is expecting it.

If you must send an attachment, then before you send the message with the attachment, ALWAYS

send the recipient a message telling them you are about to send them an attachment. This will, at

least, let them know to expect a message with an attachment from you.

AOL 6.0, 7.0, 8.0 Alternate

Simply install the 'safe' version of AOL, version 5.0, on your computer and use it for your plain text

mailing lists. Create or use one of your 8 allowed AOL screen names to subscribe to; and to read,

send, and reply to the list's mail. AOL 5.0 will not send HTML or RTF encoded e-mail unless YOU

add it (stationery/background; colored, bold, or italicized text; insert an image; etc.).

Place one of the ubiquitous free AOL 6.0, 7.0, or 8.0 CDs (available everywhere!) in your CD-

ROM drive, hold down the shift key and close the tray to stop the autoplay feature. If that doesn't

work, close the install window when it comes up. Then, using "Windows Explorer" or "My

Computer", navigate to the AOL 5.0 folder (resident on all these CDs) and double-click on the

'setup' program file. Don't let the install program overwrite any other AOL version if prompted or

Netscape or Internet Explorer as your browser. WARNING: Do not use AOL's web browser.

Start either browser and type "www.aol.com" in the URL field. Sign on with your ScreenName and

Password. Click on "AOL Mail". You will then be able to submit messages using AOL's AOL Mail

on the Web service.

Starting with Netscape Communicator 6.2 AOL members can read and send AOL e-mail via the

browser. The browser fully supports both HTML and plain text messages and even allows you to

set specific domain names (e.g., mailing lists) to always send plain text.

Changing Plain Text Settings

If you are sending a message to someone who can’t read HTML-formatted messages (also called

'rich text'), you can switch to plain text. You can also specify plain text only for messages sent to a

specific address or domain.

Messages sent in plain text lose all formatting and attachments. Replies to (and forwarded) plain

text messages are also sent in plain text.

To change the plain text setting while you are composing a message:

3/13/17 2:19 PMConfiguring Mail Clients to Send Plain ASCII Text

Page 9 of 41http://cypherpunks.faithweb.com/nomime.html

1. Click in the message area of the Write Mail window.

2. Change the plain text setting:

3. Click the T icon just below the Subject label to toggle the message between plain text and

rich text formatting; or

change the plain text setting for all messages you send to an address or domain:

1. Open the Edit menu and choose Preferences.

2. Click Advanced Options.

3. Click Add.

4. Type the email address or domain for which you want all messages to be sent in plain text. If

you specify a domain (such as example.net), you’ll have an opportunity to switch to plain

text whenever you address a message to an email address that includes that domain.

5. Click OK.

On the "Format" menu Select the format you want to change the message to: The menu list

offers three choices: Plain Text, Microsoft Rich Text, and HTML. Select Plain Text.

If Microsoft Word is your e-mail editor, these options may not be available.

NOTE: Outlook Help states that you can switch message formats after starting an e-mail

message, but this doesn't work if you use Word as your e-mail editor, only if you use the

internal Outlook mail editor (and then only switch between plain text and HTML formats).

Outlook Applies Encoding to Plain Text Messages (Q278134).

However, this setting may not work. As stated in the article, "Whether or not Outlook honors this

registry setting depends on what software creates MIME on the user's behalf; when Outlook uses

Exchange to send the message, Outlook does not honor this registry setting." While it does set the

Content-Transfer-Encoding to quoted-printable, Outlook performs only partial Base64 or MIME

encoding -- handling 8-bit characters, but not soft line feeds.
