Hi all,
I often see people posting to newsgroups messages that include some
bold, underlined or italic characters in the body of their text(?)
messages. I use emacs as my external editor in kmail. How could I do
the same? Sorry if this is too much off-topic but I didn't know where
else to ask. 
Thanks.
James D
