Some of us refuse to enable RichText/HTML in our mail clients for many good (to us) reasons such as security fears, and the simple reason that I want to read email with the font I chose, in the colors and sizes I chose. The correct thing to do is buy the 3.1-RELEASE CD set at only $40, or subscribe to it at $25, shipped automatically 3 or 4 times per year. The fist CD (of 4) is bootable. Have not had much success booting it on a SCSI CD but its quite easy to point newer BIOS's at ATAPI CD's for booting. If you must create boot floppies the tools and instructions are on the first CD. As are instructions in the online handbook at http://www.freebsd.org.
