Thanks, again. So, for anyone who is interested, here is the full script,
"Strip HTML (fast)":
tell application "Microsoft Entourage"
set aMsg to item 1 of (get current messages)
set the content of aMsg to (get the content of aMsg as unicode text)
end tell
To use: Copy and paste into Script Editor. Compile and save in folder
"Entourage Script Menu Items" or a sub-folder thereof. Run from the
Entourage script menu after selecting an HTML message.
In at least one case I tried, where I opened the HTML message and had it
displayed when I ran the script, the display did not update to plain text
until I closed and re-opened the message. However, in other cases, the
display <did> update without any further action. I do not know why it lagged
in the one case; however, the script worked in every attempt.
