I don't have an IPad but everytime I get e-mail from someone who has one it's plain text not HTML. If I reply to their message, I can't send them a hyperlink and I can't boldface the text or underline it. I have to cut and repaste the entire message into a new e-mail.
My question is, can they do something to change their initiating e-mail to HTML? If not, why is the IPad like this? It's a real pain in the butt.

HTML mail often sucks, IMO. However, I have not had an issue ith it on my iPad 2. When a message has a link in it, it works. I don't see html settings on the iPad. I do see the settings on icloud.com for Apple Mail, and in gmail, or other online accounts. That's where the settings for this are.

Well, the sender doesn't seem to care but the person replying might if the person replying wants to include a hyperlink. One of them has gmail so I will ask her to look into it. When she uses her computer to send me e-mail from her gmail account, it doesn't come in plain text. It only comes that way from her iPad. Thanks for the info.
There's nothing stopping you from replying using a different format. The person sending you mail may have set up their mail to send plain text only because someone they email cannot receive HTML email.
What I was saying was that I do not like HTML email, but it works fine on my iPad, my iPhone, and my wife's iPod Touch. The settingss seem to be on each mail account and not on the iPad itself, though, if there is a setting, I haven't found it yet.
