Hey, I have an idea. Since Luke adds the nice little sig at the bottom of
each message, can he "fix" the Content-Type: text/html line if it shows up
in an e-mail??? Seems like a simple matter of changing the "html" to
"text". If we want to really get crazy a simple perl script could strip
out the HTML tags while still retaining the proper formatting as well as
notify the offender of his mistake. Of course, we could simply bounce the
message back to the offender and make them fix it...
