[PLUG] Constant Contact html and w3m

Many mailing lists use Constant Contact.  The mails arrive
as an ascii version and an html version.  The unformatted
ascii version is unreadable.  The html version is readable,
but I don't use complex web browsers on random content sent
from uncertified sources - I hope to avoid zero day attacks.   

I sorta trust Constant Contact, and look at the formatted
html version with w3m.  I presume w3m is a simpler tool,
and not a likely target for attack. 

Is this naive?
