I think the answer varies depending on the nature of the list. My lists
are all 'discussion' lists, for which GIF's and JPG's are completely
out of line, as are other binary attachments. I also ban posts in HTML
because IMHO HTML adds little, if any, significant value just through
formatting, the duplication inherent in most HTML encoded messages is
wasteful (the cost of my net connection tripled in the last year because
of increased bandwidth needs, mostly caused by list traffic), and HTML
causes problems with a significant number of my subscribers.
