If the scripters out there are keen to modify "html to body and strip",
would some kind and capable person like to address the issue of the
script choking when it encounters html mail which contains an enclosure.
There are obviously workarounds, but it would be nice if the script could
handle these situations. Btw, I've found TexEdit to be an excellent
product.
