Hi,
Regardless of origin it seems that all my mail is shown in rich
format. So how can I tell if the sender was using NeXT format so that I
can respond in kind? (The only tell-tale sign I know of is graphics?)

If there's an image of a lock, then it's in encrypted format (but, unfortunately, WE are not allowed to decrypt it 8^(. Later, --Felix

Actually, if there is a triangle next to the message number, then it's
NeXTMail. If there is no triangle and you do the above (triple click
on a line), then it's non-NeXTMail, but it was sent from the NeXT
Mail.app program. If there's no triangle and the triple-click only
selects a line, then it's non-NeXTMail sent from a mail-program other
than Mail.app.
