Scripting Apple Mail to strip all but plain text alternative


  • Subject: Scripting Apple Mail to strip all but plain text alternative

Hello, I get a good deal of rich text or html email from clients. These are not automated emails, but regular users. I can use the Message -> Plain Text Alternative, but that has not state to it, and it will not be remembered as soon as you leave the message.

Since I can go locate the mail file locally, strip out the non plain text parts based on the content disposition, I know it works. The trouble is I use IMAP, and a local change in the file system does not seem to make it back to the IMAP server.

I am looking for an AppleScript that can strip out the non plain text parts, or if possible, set the plain text as default.

On a side note, or possibly related, I would like to do the same with regard to editing, and the people who send me non subject emails, being able to add in a subject would be nice.

What is the best resource for Apple Mail related Apple Scripts?
