maybe that is one thing that could really help here.  possibly mutt and
other emacs-based mail readers, when putting up a received e-mail
message, should by default do just that (and, also, '(setq
enable-local-variables :safe)'?).

i use mh-e, and it does *not* seem to do that.  but, if emacs is niche,
mh-e is the niche-squared. :)

cheers, Greg
