Okay guys, I understand the bandwidth issue. And I personally don't like it when people send HTML tagged emails. But is it really that hard to use ~/.mailcap? I mean if the mail is properly MIME tagged you should have no problem with reading HTML mail with a capable text-client. Mutt does it with `auto_view text/html' in muttrc and text/html lynx -dump -force_html %s; copiousoutput; nametemplate=%s.html in ~/.mailcap.... It's not like you can actually get ActiveX viruses from lynx....
