                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-3812

          Issue Type: Improvement

             Fix For: 3.8.0


h2. Why ?

In some case converting an HTML message to plain text is desired.

Such exemples includes, but are not restricted to:

  - When writing to a plain text only mailing list EG the ASF mailing lists

 - Converting some potentially harmful messages (spam with high scores but also virusses) to plain text can be seen as a way to "neutralize" them.

The feature seems generic enough to land as a generic mailet.

h2. How?

Converts

multipart/alternative
   - text/html
    - text/plain

into text/html (only keep this part)

Then rely on HTMLTextExtractor class to convert remaining text/html parts into text/plain.
