I'm not sure it's written down anywhere, but in general we strongly discourage HTML email for the lists @python.org (http://python.org) > Can we have some guideline to allow only plain text emails, so as to > avoid cases like > http://mail.python.org/pipermail/docs/2012-March/007999.html, where > you are forced to scroll horizontally in order to read the text. docs is a different mailing list than python-dev, but still neither list is doing any content filtering. We could always enable that if we wanted to get strict about it. In this case, this isn't html email, it's likely this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/558294 Cheers, -Barry
