But, as Rod pointed out, "stripping" is not the right answer, either.  What 
it should do is display them literally, without interpretation.

What if you had asked me how to create a simple web page, and I sent you this 
reply:

  {html}
    {body}
      {h1}This is a header tag.{/h1}
    {/body}
  {/html}

If you were using PMMail today, you could not read this.  Note that I have 
used curly brackets in place of angle brackets specifically because of this 
problem.

Indeed, in a mail I posted yesterday, I made the statement "That's not 
prohibited, and neither is interpreting embedded {html} tags", but what comes 
through in PMMail's display is "That's not prohibited, and neither is 
interpreting embedded  tags".


How about sending your html code as an attachment?
