Outlook Express (and some others) render your message as HTML by default.

But like I said, not everyone's mail reader can deal with rendering HTML.

Most mailers (and I believe Outlook Express) will deal with that by sending your message *twice* (two MIME attachments) and the reader transparently selects one. Users never see the "man behind the curtain"
