While still more than doubling the size of the message, though.

Unfortunately, I still haven't figured out how to tell evolution
to always display the text/plain version when given the choice.
It always defaults to the other one. Mozilla and Netscape also
used to do this when I used them. Does anyone know how to
configure this (short of editing the source and recompiling)?
Thanks,
