Well, that shows my ignorance of pine. I haven't used it for several years, but I just tried it out and had no trouble with reading html mail. I also had no trouble reading it in elm. So, perhaps the better solution would be to distribute a version of pine with defaults that are screen reader friendly? Supressing these warnings would be a start. Another thing I noticed, on the pine I was using, is that the cursor doesn't track the highlight bar so I can't use the read current line command to figure out what message I'm on in the message index...etc. It seems to me that there used to be a way to toggle cursor tracking, but I didn't find it when I was playing around with pine 4.10 today. This would be a constructive way of trying to avoid these discussions.
