1) Didn't work for me, I tried to metamail it, as Per suggests, but
  nothing happened.  I see the <tag> tags.  (But in Per's message,
  things work out (apparently it contains ^Hs and such)

2) This is a very unSGMLish approach.  It lets people mark text as
  italic or bold, what they should do, is specify what parts of a
  message is what, and leave it to the client to decide what it looks
  like.

MIME «text/enriched» is ugly, broken and evil, and should be buried 
in a crossroads at midnight together with Quoted-Unreadable, Netscape
Extentions, and Bill Gates.

IMHO.
