[GNC] Mail formatting

[Eric Coates]

Hi Gert

For you (and other list recipients) perhaps but ...

In your response you included my message; on my system I see *bold* with 
the letters in bold  and /italic/ with the letters in italic - almost 
but not quite completely the same as you can see below. (I've 
deliberately avoided using quotes marks around the offending texts 
fearing they'd get messed with).

And, the message you sent (duplicated below) on the copy I'm looking at 
is in blue.

Oh well, it's another week and there'll be other challenges.

Best wishes

Eric
