For additional wisdom, check a thread from about June with the subject
"matching empty text/plain".  I got alot of good learnin' from that.

This catches mail whose header says it's HTML.

  :0
  * ^Content-Type: text/html
  { EXITCODE=66 }

  :0 A
  /dev/null

This catches multipart mail with only an HTML (and no plain) part.

  :0
  * ^Content-Type: multipart/
  {
   :0
   * 2^1 B ?? ^Content-Type: text/html
   * -1^1  B ?? ^Content-Type: text
   { EXITCODE=66 }

   :0 A
   /dev/null
  }

Note that BOTH of these will cause you to miss legitimate mail.
