  Becouse the message still has the raw ACII text message in the body.  The
HTML tag would basically be duplicate data.  Or, in some cases, perhaps a
message saying 'you can't see this becouse you have a stupid client'.  This
may be the case if I'm sending along a payload of some data that should be
interpeted, but isn't for some reason..
