than converting the whole message would be a cleaner solution.

Again - <!-- <bug> --> would be tidy and I can't imagine overly hard to
do if you've got the smarts to code the HTML to text conversion..

Of course the web is supposed to be pretty and email is supposed to be
email,
but whilever mail clients can do something, users are going to want to
do it!

I love mailscanner, maybe a few of these little tweaks might help me
love it more!
