[AusNOG] AusNOG Mailing List 2015

[Robert Hudson]

The 1990s called, they want their text-mode clients that can't cope with
HTML back.

Seriously, this is still a thing in this day and age? Sure, you may choose
to use a text-mode client. Just like you may choose to ride a horse to work
- but we don't ask that people don't  drive past you for fear of scaring
the horse...
