But how much better is it to recieve
"<b>Yes</b>, I <i>want to</i> come to the party."
instead of
"Yes, I want to come to the party."
No argument there. But having a recipe such as
:0
* ^Content-Type: multipart
/dev/null
in place (which was originally suggested) means you'll have an
inaccurate count of how many people will be attending your party.
I believe others on this list have taken the approach of sending an
auto-response message detailing how to turn off Netscape's text and
HTML multipart/alternative messages which are apparently enabled by
default.
:0
* ^Mime-Version:
* ^Content-Type:[ ]*multipart/alternative
{
:0c
* ! ^FROM_DAEMON
* ! ^X-Loop: <...your unique string...>
{
:0fi
| formail -rt -I "Precedence: junk" \
-A "X-Loop: <...your unique string...>" ;\
echo "Please see http://www... for instructions on how to disable" ;\
echo "multipart/alternative messages" ;\
:0
! -oi -t
}
:0wfhb
| extract_text_from_alternative
}
