In an perfect world multipart/alternative is the 'clean' 
way to send html. Any client who can deal with html 
displays the text/html part of the message, all other 
the text/plain part. So if you find a mail of this type 
you could assume that all (usefull) information is as a 
copy in the text/plain part. In this case you wouldn't 
have to reject the message, you just could use the 
text/plain part for the message that goes to the list.

As the world is not perfect (:~( , the best way to deal 
with this, is to block the mail.

multipart/related is the way to embed images (and other
objects) that are used in a html part in the mail, so 
that the mail is selfcontained.
