When dealing with MIME and/or HTML mail, I currently have a
heavy-weight scripting solution to deal with such messages
when replying to them:

<http://www.mhonarc.org/MHonArc/extras/mha-mhedit/>

I'll likely continue to use it until nmh's MIME handling
is redone to support the registration of custom formatters
based on a MIME entities content-type.  It is not only
multipart bodies that reply needs to deal with, but
media-types like text/html which is becoming more
prevalent as time goes on.
