Please do not top post, it breaks the flow of the discussion. I know be 
default, gmail follows Microsoft's brain dead mail client defaults.

Second, please disable HTMl formatting. It is useless and we strip it

Third, please do not equate Ubuntu with Linux. It is a distribution of 
Linux and like all of them their weaknesses and strengths.

Normally, Alex our fantastic Debian developer/maintainer provides 
packages for the most recent Debian/Ubuntu releases in our own 
repositories. So you should see these soon. In this case it is 
completely dependent on his free time to do this.
