Are you willing to use a different agent than Thunderbird? I recall Gnus having settings you could use to prioritize which alternative should be displayed. There were even hooks I was able to use to have different preferences in response to header patterns. mutt has a setting called alternative_order for this. I've just started using RMAIL (in emacs) and it seems to get it right without customization, favouring text/plain over text/html. Now I just need to teach it to automatically delete the emails that lack text/plain. Maybe Thunderbird has something like this, perhaps via a plugin, but my (limited) Thunderbird experience has been uninspiring. _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
