Noticed there is some html email coming across the list, but not because
I see it.  Heres how I strip the html bits from email using procmail & 
perl.

from .procmailrc

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# If a message is MIME and under 100k, remove the HTML version if
# neccesary.
:0 fw
* ^Content-type:.*boundary
* <102400
|/home/john/bin/strip_html.pl
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

and strip_html.pl is attached.  Makes reading email easier.

Peace.
