David,
do you think you can modify your client so it A) does not use HTML (and no RTF 
as well), and B) if possible change you're client  so it does not do the 
"quoted-printable" formatting...
OR
just trim off pretty much anything you are replying to because by the time 
your client gets done mangling it, the previous poster's information is pretty 
much unreadable.
