The HTMLRendering library, which we were using in some previous
PowerMail version, was quite unstable, thus this quote in the manual. We
now use WebKit, which is both more stable and provides a more accurate
display (although some glitches exist when it is used in a Carbon
application like PM).
However, the HTML to text conversion facility we use is also a bit
unstable (maybe this have improved in recent Mac OS X versions?). This
facility uses WebKit, but I don't think WebKit is the cause of the
instability, thus the suggestion to enable HTML display when an HTML
message causes a crash when displayed in plain text.
