I would hope, rather that when a message contains such as: ... ------=_Part_50612164_1937433787.1612461787220 Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable ... forwarding that "Part" would bypass rendering and stripping, and send it verbatim with no transformation.
(But I use an IMAP server which is 8bit savvy with an SMTP server that corrupts 8bit. I might want Content-Transfer-Encoding conversion.) -- gil
