Well, doesn't "kill," really, but strips it and forces it to adhere to your dress code... mostly. Since I didn't notice any mention of this in the Rich Text thread (maybe I missed it), I'll mention that OnyX (Parameters>Misc) allows me to force most of the HTML email I receive to plain text

For the most part, Cover Flow - or at least its ubiquitous use, in things like Finder, is a "named" Leopard feature, yes. But the framework that drives it is available in Tiger. Not sure it was delivered as part of the .11 update or if it's bundled as one the many frameworks that comes wi
