from the FAQ:

----
17. Why does Balsa defaults to the HTML-Part?
A multipart/alternative
is ordered from least to most faithful rendering of the alternative 
versions
of a document.  A UA is expected to select the highest quality veriosn of
the document that it supports.  If a text/html version is after the 
text/plain
in multipart/alternative, then from the sender?s perspective, the text/html
is the higher quality version and balsa is correct to select it.
See RFC 2046.

So Balsa will *never* (correct my if I'm wrong!) strip the html-part! (at 
least not when displaying...)
If you really want to strip use procmail or sth. like this!
