Thanks.  Correct.

But please don't post in HTML, or if you choose to do so in general, at 
least don't do so to the pan list.  Being a pan user I'm sure you know 
how that ends up looking, and a lot of list regulars (including me) read 
this list via gmane.org 's list2news service using pan, which means your 
posts don't exactly leave the greatest impression if you're posting in 
HTML.

(Meanwhile, interesting to see that you're using kmail for posting.  I'm 
a kde user, and /was/ a kmail user for nearly a decade, from 
kde2.something to kde 3.6, but I gave up on kmail when it akonadified, as 
I lost one too many mails to the stupid akonadification.  If it's working 
fine for you, good, but if you find it losing mails and otherwise not 
doing what you expect of a good email client, consider switching to
claws-mail, which I use for mail now.  Claws works well and I've been 
extremely happy with it, but it is a bit of work transferring from kmail, 
since claws doesn't handle maildir, so you have to work out some way to 
transfer all your old mail not held on an IMAP server to claws' MH 
format.  But there are ways to do that for those suitably determined, as 
I was after kmail/akonadi ate one too many mails for breakfast!)
