Rails convert an html email to a text email

Given an html开发者_如何学Python email message, is there a way to convert that to a text version? I'm doing email ingestion and notice that some times an email doesn't include a text version, especially with blackberry devices.

thanks

HTML to Text is one of the features provided by the Premailer gem.

premailer = Premailer.new('http://example.com/html_email.html')
premailer.to_plain_text

In case you don't want to use it because it does a lot, you can look at the code for how it does it here

Perhaps I'm missing something, but couldn't you just take the HTML message and run ActionView::Helpers::SanitizeHelper#strip_tags over it?
