Yes, don't do html mail - it is too dangerous and is a damn pain in
the arse for anyone that chooses to read their mail in plain text.
Normally if I get sent a HTML message I wrap it in PRE /PRE tags and
send it back.

Reject it - I strongly believe that there is no value in having html
structuring in a mailing list context. Most people only use the html
features for annoying non-essential window dressing which don't add
any value to the message they are conveying.
