Grammatical formatting error: A numbered list requires a new line for
each
numbered item.

On this one, he gets a pass - my own email reader (Google's web
interface) does indeed show each item in his list beginning on a
separate line.

Not everyone's on GMail, though.  A lot of us don't have "smart" clients
that autoformat everything, and I'm of the school of thought that you
should try to format to the lowest common denominator.  (Which, come to
think of it, includes using plaintext as opposed to HTML, but that's me
being old and grumpy.)

I don't think the email client has anything to do with it. The  
original post contained two lists, the second with each item on a  
separate line and the first not. So most likely they are simply  
talking about two different things.
