Hi there,

We are having problems reading the body text of emails sent from 
Hotmail using the HTML/Rich Text Editor. (Message header contains 
Content-Type: text/html). In our current Imp installation, version 
2.2.6, we only see the body text if we Reply to the message or show 
the source of the mail. Letters from Hotmail using Content-Type: 
text/plain, we have no problems with

Is this a known problem, and do you have any suggestions for a solution?

Kind regards,
Birthe Randrup

Example of letter from Hotmail using Rich Text Editor, which text we 
can't see when we open the letter, except when we reply to it:

I haven't seen it, but looking at the code, do you have any address
books defined?  Is Turba installed?

Okay, it is much better, but still not quite right.  Check
out my new version at:

https://mail.ph.utexas.edu/patches/misc/enriched.php.txt
and
https://mail.ph.utexas.edu/patches/misc/enriched.diff

Very small changes to make it work right.  Basically fix
the << stuff, and make the color command take hex instead
of decimal digits. I only tested on 3 messages, but it seems
to be correct on all three (and the version in CVS fails
on 2 of the 3).
