that means :

- html in mailinglists is not necessary (and not desired)

- many (even modern) mail clients do not show html messages when getting
them in a digest, many disable it (like me) 

- not every system does display it (did you ever receive html email
using a palm pilot e.g. ?)

- it can be a security risk for recipients

- it blows up traffic

- simply disable craetion of html messages in your client, use plain
text instead
