Oops!  My apologies. Thanks for the correction.

Am I the only one who is bothered by this HTML mail?   If so, I'll just have
to get used to it, I guess.

Thanks
PG

MIME and HTML emails are two completely different things.

MIME is useful, HTML is not (in this context). Rejecting html emails with
an error might be ok, rejecting MIME emails would have dropped the one you
tried to send (as well as this one). From your headers:

MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain;
        charset="iso-8859-1"
