Be aware when you receive HTML emails (who doesn't?)!

This is pretty alarming! We're looking into ways to better prevent users being tricked with styles in HTML emails, but it's difficult to do so without degrading how HTML emails are shown.

For now, using Basic HTML mode can help . It attempts to strip most of the stuff that can be used to cause confusion, but we'd still encourage caution when forwarding.

@thunderbird HTML in emails has always been a security issue one way or the other. Not using Thunderbird, but another MUA like claws or mutt at least mitigates it.
