Show HN: Turn an email to a web page

One request: PLEASE don't use highlighting-pops-up-text add-ins. They immediately get blocked on my end and are an annoying user experience.

This is a HUGE pet-peeve of mine because I have a habit of selecting text while I'm reading. And I'm definitely not alone. I don't understand why sites continue to do this.

Your voice is heard. We've removed the highlighting plugin. Sorry for your inconvenience.

The same reason they show advertisements. By installing these plugins they get a share of affiliate income or other louchy schemes.
