I'd like to see formatting for email that doesn't have the security and privacy vulnerabilities and complexity of HTML email. Markdown would be fine. Inline images can refer only to attachments in the same message, not to arbitrary URLs. Maybe some restrictions on links to reduce their effectiveness in phishing emails. It would be fine. It would be everything you actually need.

Markdown would be fine Markdown supports arbitrary HTML, and so has exactly the privacy and security implications of HTML (though there extensions available which limit this, and are standard in some markdown processors and expected by default in some markdown variants.)
- NoGravitas 7y agoOkay, to be pedantic, I mean a subset of Markdown that doesn't allow arbitrary HTML, and may have additional restrictions of the types I mentioned.
