Naive question: Why use stars when you can have italic and bold? I'd rather use TextMate, but would prefer not to give up my HTML mail. Is there some happy middle-ground I'm missing? (Or is Apple Mail the wrong tool for the job?)
A few reasons:
- Not everybody use Mail.app (e.g. I use Gmail webmail) - Not everybody like html/rich text mails, some even have strong feelings against html in mails. Plus, it's considered inappropriate on a lot of newsgroup and mail lists. - Some prefer typing in TM than in Mail
