I really dislike html in mails - whether in the right mime part or not -

course these are not normal mail clients, but server generated mails like
order confirmations, invoices, etc. It even happens to big ISPs :(

Is there some online Hall of Shame where badly-behaving mail clients can be enumerated and their crimes listed? It would be nice to have some ammo to bring to the PHB's to show why particular clients should be avoided (ie. that they contribute to the spam problem by forcing mail admins to accept broken input).

My manufacturing company is very picky about accepting physical inputs from vendors. We should be equally picky about what we accept from them in email.
