Well.. It's all in the interest of helping someone who wishes to use a
feature that's very much part of Ubuntu. (Built into Evolution).  Being
truly helpful means helping also when the question is not on how to do
something in httpd.conf, but on how to make an e-mail sing & dance even
when you personally don't like singing & dancing e-mails. 

Actually, I just noticed Evolution even includes an 'Insert Emoticon'
function..  :-P   The end of the world as we know it, no doubt.

                                 ....   
                                      


Oh..  You'll be glad you did that..   (Everyone else has been made to
suffer real bad reading this... All just using Ubuntu's default e-mail
software I might add.  :-Q )  

It's interesting actually why people don't seem to mind the inclusion of
emoticons, avatars and all kinds of crap on web based discussion forums,
but doing anything that's not 7-bit US-ASCII in e-mail drives some
people ballistic. :D

Cheers,
