What I meant was that maybe I should send the attachments to everyone as multipart/mixed so that they would see two attachments, form.doc and form.txt, and could decide when they respond which version they want to fill out. I would prefer not to keep track of which recipients prefer which version, but I suppose that really wouldn't be that much extra work.
