...save the company millions of pounds each year

Read between the lines. This is a mobile phone company, and the hapless employees will now have to resort to sending txt messages on their mobile phones to each other - on the employee's own phone.

Muhahahaaaa...... :)

Me, I think much more work would get done if people stopped sending HTML formatted mail. I want nothing in my inbox to blink or play music, etc.
