Mine can go to plain text or
nroff-like backspace sequences.  What other markup languages would be
useful for metamail?  (I suppose I could probably hack it to convert
to text/enhanced...)

Well, the most useful thing is to use TERMCAP/curses information.  The
only advantage of spitting out text/enhanced would be that we have the
technology for displaying THAT using termcap, but it seems like a
roundabout procedure.....
