Well, not exactly "support", but it needs to send it out with a
Content-type of text/css : not as text/plain, and certainly not as
application/x-pointplus, of which there *still* seem to be some
examples in the wild.
One web service provider that was getting it wrong responded to their
customer's complaint by saying that they did not support CSS, and had
no plans to do so. Talk about clue-impaired? Oh yes, here it is,
April 2003, Message-id was b897l4$lge$1@newswest.sybase.com
As we see (at least, those who have the patience to trawl through the
longwinded arguments on that thread about RFC2616 compliance), the
original poster *was* able to overcome their provider's blindspot by
use of their own .htaccess directive.
