We use a utility called 'demime' here to convert bastardized e-mail to plain text. A few users have it automatically set up.
It uses lynx for the html to text function.
It also deals quite well with various text methods.
You might look in to this. Google 'demime' and you will get many hits.
Hope this helps.
