  Well, this is just a bit of streamlining and won't make it behave any
differently, but you might use:

HTML_TO_PLAIN_TEXT_COMMAND = 'LYNX_TEMP_SPACE=/tmp /usr/bin/lynx
-force_html -dump %(filename)s'

  That way you set the variable and run lynx all in one command, and
save yourself an invocation of /bin/sh.  :)  In a small installation
like mine that means about squat, but if you're one of the ones that
processes eleventy zillion emails per hour it might make a performance
difference (especially if /bin/sh is actually bash in disguise...).

  P.S. - Still having my PGP/MIME messages bounced due to Content-Type:
headers...I'll shut up as soon as someone tells me whether it's expected
behaviour or not... :)
