Getting texr from Mail.App

I have some serious problems in taking the text from the messages received with Mail.App: it very often gets anomalous truncations that keep from using an automated AppleScript -based handling of the message contents.

I found that after saving the message and opening it with Style, I can handle the text very comfortably, without loosing any piece of text; also, at that point I can save the message in text format. open it with BBEdit and at that point manipulate the message text in any way I want.
Is the problem the text format (rtf) used in Mail? Is there a more direct way to handle text from Mail.app?
