So the BOLD text shows up as asterisks as in *bold*. Best to view the

I will look into it. I changed the email notification format to plain text yesterday while trying to establish why some emails had a bunch of html top and bottom. That's possibly the reason why. Bear in mind the email integration is an added convenience designed to help transition people from an old fashioned mail list to a relatively richly featured web based forum.

It would be preferable if everyone just used the web interface. But I would suggest it is a must when compiling complex posts.

We put together an FAQ item covering the email integration today, which will be published tomorrow once I am happy with the wording.
