 |Hum, I have been using the previous define variant without

 |'text/html' part using HTML-tagsoup-to-text converter. Would you mind

At least no more additional `mimetype' command nor
*mimetype-load-control* necessary, but simply do the above and it
will work under all circumstances.

Very much appreciated.  Should have read "thank you", of course.
Somehow i produce a lot of dark spots like that in the last year
or so.

Thanks for this.  I will not :).  Of course lynx is much better,
w3m was once i tried it last, etc.  I mean yes, we do go for
*ttycharset*, but then we do not look into the tagsoup to choose
the source character set, but take what the mail says it is.  Some
messages suck, there really is software out there which enwraps
everything (line of the text version for example) in additional
<div> tags, whereas others use (or used) that for paragraphs.  So
what to do about that.  It is a very simple thing.  On the other
hand it just works for me, and i read some things which look
terrifying on source level.  I only know about one problem which
is generated by a german computer magazine, they produce very
strange tags like <% or something, and we do not know about this.

I mean, it should be doable to look into the according parameters
of the HTML/XML, collect text data and apply character set
conversion.  On the other hand generators which use different
character set specifications for the mail message and the text in
the HTML part of the mail message ... are not known to me.  (I
would prefer to continue living on that island, too.)

 |Have a nice sunday

Hope you had, too, and virus-free.
Thanks again, and ciao from Germany, Noctambule!
