auto-dbm quirks

I had the same problem, an exchange server and outlook and pressing
"plain text only" gave me mails with HTML and plain mixed, all behind
an all-forbidding firewall. That way the message was sent twice in the
same email, once with HTML garbage and once with text.

The ripe robot gives an error on the first HTML line, but correctly
handles the following plain text part. You get a mail saying "parts of
your updates failed" (the html part), but the action itself is done.

I had security give me ssh to my outside Linux box and now I am using
software (mutt, sendmail) that takes my configurations for serious ;)
