I've been trying out a word-to-html conversion 
program from the Russian Team OS/2 folks (at 
Hobbes under wvhtml_0.6.0.1.zip).  It has a PM 
interface version, which works quite well on its 
own, definitely worth looking at.

It doesn't work so well as a MIME association 
under PMMail.  For some reason, it produces an 
empty (zero-length) file running as a MIME 
associated-program.  I've tried every reasonable 
"working directory" entry (the various 
subdirectories of PMMail, including PMMAIL\TEMP; 
".." and "."; the directory where wvPM.exe is 
located -- but each time, it simply produces a 
0-sized file, located in the directory pointed to 
by the SET TEMP= variable in my config.sys.  

However, when I simply use the mouse-button popup 
to save the document, and then run the wvPM.exe to 
open the Word file and convert it to HTML, it 
works peachy.

Does anyone have any suggestions?  If folks get it 
working, please let me know how!!
