Say, Robert - I think this filter is too loose.  This method will also
trash text based email which are PGP signed.  Thats not what you want.

But you are on the right track.

Perhaps something that tracks more closely on html, like this line from
my procmailrc file (this line is in a recipe which looks only at email
headers and it is case insensitive):

* ^content-type:.*html
