happened only because my server would strip the tags.   So it must be coming in 
formatted in plain/text.    My guess is the copy and paste operation when Ralph 
composed the email preserved the HTML formatting from the original source and 
his email package is blindly obeying(instead of stripping as it should)  by 
including the tags in plain text.

Thanks for looking into this annoying problem Spencer. Photobucket gives 
4 different links to copy and I have been using the "image" link which 
is a lot longer than the "direct" link. Maybe that is the problem so I 
will post a direct link here and see how that works.
