html2text doesn't do a great job by itself. In particular, it does poorly trying to insert empty lines between paragraphs. As a result of this and other behavior, clarity is lost. I'd recommend setting up the config file called ~/.html2textrc. The man page is very helpful. -Andy -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
