Yes.  I'm of the opinion that we should all just send base64-encoded
non-standard-conforming amateurishly-laid-out pdf files instead of
plain-text content.  One can send much more flowery emails then, and you
don't need to worry about all those pesky people reading your mail on their
PDAs/phones/braille-readers/etc because they simply won't be able to
(they'll just incur a large gprs bill at the end of the month instead).
Alternatively, so that *everyone* can read the mail, even if they don't have
a pdf reader, also attach a tiff file containing an image of the pdf.  What
do you mean that's worse?
