I would welcome both the loss of the spam and unecessary bloating of my mail from text/html messages. Are the hotmail mesages multipart/alternative with text/html and text/plain versions and if so, can't the mail filter reformat the message into just text/plain (I know there are external programs like reformime that can). There are plenty of XXXX->html converters for all sorts of doc types but I'm not aware of a html->text converter - everyone seems hellbent on producing html even if just to be able to print the heading in *boldface*.
