Hello,
I'd like to convert the body of the HTML messages which I receive to
plain text. I have found a recipe for this in Jari Aalto's pm tips,
(Chapter 12), but I also read in several places that several of these
recipes are badly formatted. Do you know if it works, or have
alternative working recipes to do it? I am not trying it myself yet
because must absolutely install other software first so another job
finishes by monday, but will need it right after, that's why I am
asking here now.
I was given this recipe by a friend who was given it by some one else.
It works very well and have had no problems with it so far
# Filter out evil html, and leave a message that it is filtered.
# I am forever grateful to Bart Schaefer for this one.

}
I hope this helps, one day I have to find the time to rtfm on procmail
understand and be able to write my own .procmailrc files rather than beg
borrow from friends and collegues. :-)
Peace Jim
