I though I read a while ago that someone had a script to strip HTML
from emails (I don't remember who or if it's publicly available
though). Also, it's already possible to attach a file when sending an internet email (though I think just one file attachment).
Though, it might be handy to have an option in the Synchronet user preferences to strip HTML from emails, so that they look more normal
when reading via the telnet interface. If you're getting your BBS mail with a mail reader that supports HTML, then one might prefer to have
the HTML left in there.

Josh Renaud had something that did that. Was a python script though.

Python? I'd be curious to know how that was integrated into
Synchronet, since Synchronet uses JavaScript as its server-side
scripting language. But I seem to remember reading it was set up as
some kind of filter? So perhaps it wasn't run directly by Synchronet
but would filter incoming emails, or something to that effect..

Already have it:

When using the built in mail reader in the terminal server, it only displays the "plain-text" portion of MIME-encoded emails unless the user is in raw I/O mode (Ctrl-Z).
What about files, if the user send email on terminal server and attached a uploaded file and send it to me, it will convert to uuencode or mime as well?

The mail server (POP3 and SMTP) will mime/base64-encode the attached
file. Have you tried it?

when reading from the BBS terminal, if there's a file attached (vis MIME or UUENCODE or even XXENCODE), is there a mechanism where the file is decoded and made available in a private file directory for download?

No, that (MIME decoding and storing of file attachments) is not
supported currently.

No worries. I noticed in a later message it's only your email client
and not your actual BBS postings.
However you want to send off your emails is fine, I just don't
understand why some people like to attach massive disclaimers
like that.
But to each their own, amirite? ;)
