  While we are at it, email systems start to be able to handle
<italic>styled</italic> text. One can even

<center><bold><italic><fontfamily><param>Times</param><bigger><bigger>display

</bigger></bigger></fontfamily></italic></bold></center>text. For users
of Mac's and PC's there is even a for free program Eudora Light 3
<<ftp://ftp.qualcomm.com/>, which can read such new features.


  This ought to make readers of this mailing list happy, because surely
the things developed here will become the standards of tomorrow, in one
form or another.


  So, hurry up, making sure your email software is up to date (that is,
if this letter looks like foo bar to you).
