It won't be because the Notes server is "smart" enough to know that you
are using an e-mail client and converts the message to text before sending
it on it's way to you.

Notes Mail is not a Notes Client. I really is a mail client. TTBOMK, it
can't talk to a Notes server.

IIRC, it was a Notes4 client which is usable with a Notes 5 server as long
as you dont upgrade the database to Notes5 format. It's on the Notes
Server CD and is still beta.

To see red, you are going to need a Notes Client and access to the Notes
Server. One other possibility is that the Notes Client may support an
HTML mail send option and your client could turn it on for you.
