I think you have a valid point; I have changed the config so that people choosing 'digest' will get the MIME version unless they select plain.
That's new subscribers only; it won't change the selection for people already subscribed. They can do that themselves. - Brian

I know thunderbird, eudora and kmail handle it fine.
