There are times when I need to do some non-trivial editing on a
forwarded message (usually a horribly re-quoted joke). My practice has
been to save to a file, then edit that and insert it as an inline text
attachment. Alas, the saved copy has HTML formatting, so my first task
is to strip that out. Is there some way to streamline this?
