Outlook is hardly the only MUA that does that

Microsoft Exchange and Outlook have settings to do that:

This is so annoying (/rude) that I'm finally going to cobble
up a utility to rewrite a message. I've wanted that anyway
so I can decode a message's parts and then grep, repl, forw,
etc. I've been using a perl script to do that for years, so
I never migrated to replyfilter. And it doesn't help with
grep.
I'm thinking of something that could traverse the parts of a
message and do things such as:
* move a solitary text/html into a multipart/alternative
with a sibling text/plain, generated using what mhshow
does
* decode base64 and Q-P parts
* change Q-P (or base64) in a multipart C-T-E header to
7bit or 8bit, to address that problem we've heard about
a few times recently
* fix mismatched MIME boundaries
Anything else? It looks like mhtest plus some of the
functions in mhshow and mhstore could do this without
too much trouble.
