I'm reading this in thunderbird, which has chosen to bold your examplesof emphatic text. It does not remove the asterisks, though. Also, if I_underline_ a word, it renders it as such, but preserves the characters.If clients are looking for good real-world examples to emulate whengoing above-and-beyond the spec, I'd point there.
