Paulo,

I can't speak for the Indy 9 component, but when using NetMaster's C++ 
equivalent the content of the email can be extracted into a String buffer. 
Emails in HTML will have different parts to them, one of which is an ascii 
text part representing the content of the email, but without tags.  You will 
be able to identify this in the buffer and so process it.  Yes, it's not 
Indy, but maybe the method carries over.  Hope it helps.

Best regards, Peter Evans,

PS.  Are you using Delphi or C++?
