html2text + microsoft schemas

[James <jtp@xxxxxxxxx>]

All,

I'm using html2text to view 90% of the messages that hit my Inbox.
Unfortunately html2text shows a massive blurb of information at the
top of every message sent from Microsoft Outlook, as seen below:

-----

="http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/excel/2003/xml";
xmlns:ppda="http://www.passport.com/NameSpace.xsd";
xmlns:ois="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/soap/ois/";
xmlns:dir="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/soap/directory/";
xmlns:ds="http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#"; xmlns:dsp="http://
*snip*

-----

I understand that html2text is simply unable to read this junk since
it's not a standard, but is there some way to repress the output?

Thanks!
