Many are insistent that they are never to both appear in the same document. For what it's worth.</p>

<p dir="auto">John,</p>
<p dir="auto">Thanks for that info and explanation.</p>
<p dir="auto">I thought something had changed (new versions, updates to Markdown, etc.). I’m not desperate for Underline, just that it’s always been missing, thought there were options, but no. I use that function only occasionally.</p>
<p dir="auto">FYI, if already rendered in a supporting app (Mail) the quality is displayed and sent by MM.</p>
<p dir="auto">Other non-mail Mac apps are not HTML based and do have those options. That said, I can see why coding to HTML is needed for email.</p>
<p dir="auto">FYI, I found a workaround for [Markdown, here](<a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/44840416/how-to-make-a-word-underline-in-markdown" style="color: #3983C4;">https://stackoverflow.com/questions/44840416/how-to-make-a-word-underline-in-markdown</a>). Also noted, a different Markdown is likely incompatible with M-M (Markdown-it.js) and does support it.</p>

<p dir="auto">Underline isn't available in Markdown, the styling engine that MailMate uses by default. If you really need to send underlined text (why?), you probably need to use an HTML-based email program such as Mail.</p>
