You mean you mail it as an attachment?

I do that, using xml extension, it opens it as an xml document. Lots of
questions, how did you mail it, what mime type was it mailed as, what
mail client received it....so forth and so on.


The problem is, if IE (which is, lets say, the target app) opens it using text/xml or application/xhtml+xml, it wont render it properly. On the other hand, if it opens it using text/html, it will render properly but the internal representation (which is important to any further processing whether it's an API like DOM or an operation like file>save as) will be broken...

IE's current code base, or rather, components (MSXML and MSHTML) cannot work together so you can't have proper handling of XHTML using IE.
