Are people using pdf emails? I was curious about latex email because the source
code can be made more human readable than html- I was usig lynx to
try to convert the html layout info into logical latex like
syntax for testing some stuff. 
I don't really like non-text emails but for things that absolutely need
to have some structure - logical or layout- latex like source would
probably be a better way to go than anything compiled into a binary display
format. With logical structure the viewer can expand or hide various blocks
as needed. 

Right now I am just noting tags I found useful for later  parsing
into logical strucutre.  So I added things to the formated output,


./lynx -cfg=./lynx.cfg -mjm=2 -dump -force-html ifn_clips.txt  | grep "\\\\" |

to aid with things like this which is solely for input into a viewer I was
trying to make,

It is interesting though that while many
test emxails can be under 1k, the headers can be 5x more than that
with all the relays and spam stuff lol.
