The client is sending an HTML email, and the mailing list software is
forcing a MIME type switch to a plaintext form...so the HTML code
shows up.

I wish the did something like strip HTML, or even let it pass through;
I'd be surprised if anyone on the list is using a client that can't do
some form of clean fallback for HTML emails.
