Other advantages:
i. functional word-wrap (but I guess you already fixed that)
ii. does not show the layout and color scheme in ad msgs,
and relies on the default font.  (A big plus, in my view.)
iii. I believe the default viewer is less likely to crash Mahogany.

Unfortunately I cannot speak in a helpful way to iii.  I have been
trying to find a good test case and failing.  I can report the
following: when I am moving through the folder view, usually by
reading and deleting msgs, Mahogany sometimes crashes.  When I
restart Mahogany in this situation I always (?) find that:
i. the HTML viewer is selected, and
ii. the msg is a largish HTML formatted advertisement
However I also find that I cannot reproduce the crash.  I've tried
setting the msg status to unread and then reselecting it, and lots
of other things, but I cannot reproduce the crash.  I wanted to
figure this out before mentioning it, but perhaps this is a proper
context to bring it up even if I have nothing useful to say about it.

One last comment/request: if the HTML viewer replaces the default
viewer, I hope that it will support a user style sheet (so that we can
reduce the eye damage from unfiltered ads and irkingly "creative"
correspondents).

Cheers,
Alan
