You know, I was truely thinking this winmail.dat debate was a bit of 
nit-picking, until I look at sizes.  The message I am replying to has two 
attachments:  338 bytes for the first message part and 4772 bytes for the 
uselss winmail.dat attachment.  The message has ballooned more than 15 
times in size for no reason.

The PGP sig 'thingies' are around 200 bytes, BTW.
