Unfortunately, while I love ASCII, the rest of the world is embracing
HTML-mail with all of its clutter. 

Other than W3, is there any way to get their mail readable by VM?

The lynx text-->html solution falls short when you have non-graphical
and lots of clickable stuff.

Right now, I end up reading my mail twice, first in VM, then I need to
go to mozilla to read the heavy HTML stuff that doesn't translate well
in Lynx.
