Download Mail - HTML Anomaly?

Hi Perch,

You could strip out all but specific tags, it would take some custom code though.

The plugin basically takes care of the job of receiving the email and making it easily available. What I've done in the past when building "update your site by email" features is use the "message text" field which usually contains a text version of the content.

The problem with HTML email is the same as with an HTML wysiwyg editor field in that you never know what the client might put in there.

There's also the issue of email signatures. So it's not completely fool proof. Those need to be removed before sending or after as well.

Once you receive the messages in the "Incoming Mail" folder, are you copying them over to another table? Or how are you displaying them? Or have you not yet got that far?
