A way to strip certain text from incoming email in Mail.app (Mac Mail)?

I receive a large number of emails from a particular client of mine. These emails all come with a fairly long standard disclaimer at the bottom. When I print these emails, Mail makes a complete bodge of it due to the long line length of the disclaimer. None of the three formatting options 'rewrap','scale','keep apparent font size' really help, the main part of the message remains in some impossible-to-read tiny font.

"Not really an answer to your question, but some pointers.

If there are some tools available which will achieve what you want, I'm sure they are listed on Hawkwings.

If I would write something you'd want, i would look into procmail. Your mail messages are eventually stored inside your ~/Library folder (as seperate mails I believe), so it's definately possible to tamper with them.

Again, I would check first if there is an add-on available which fits your needs :-)"
