How is it supposed to 'work'? LKML is plain text, there is no markup.

'easily' write HTML mail, but that is explicitly forbidden on LKML.

On top of that, markdown is utter garbage, the idiot that 'invented' it
explicitly ignored the pre-existing standard of: *bold*, /italics/,
_underline_ and -strike-through-, a convention that has existed longer
than markdown is even is a thing (heck it pre-dates computers!).

And yes, clearly I'm a dinosaur. But dammit, we stare at code and
comments (and email) in text editors, not some web render bullshit.
