Not without code changes.
Currently, if you specify that text/html should be excluded, then the
text/plain will be used, but the exclusion applies to all text/html
data, even for non-multipart/alternative messages.
Which would be ok with me; I can't really see that there's any reason to
send HTML to this list.
Some thought needs to be applied on what would be the best way to
support such a feature. One part is that actual implementation, the
other is how the user would tell MHonArc about multipart/alternative
preference ordering.
Well, by far the most common is text/plain and text/html sent by such
clients as Outhouse (which you love so well ;), so the obvious thing
would be simply adding a prefer-multipart-plain-over-html config option.
More generally I guess you could have a config section that specified
a a multipart type and a list of MIME types in order of preference... A
truly generic solution might be difficult to describe elegantly in a
config file.
