Sorry, I don't understand.

First of all, the content of mew-int 517 is not rich text. It contains
the following.

	{\rtf1\ansi\ansicpg1252\deff0\deflang1033
	{\fonttbl
	{\f0\fnil\fcharset0\fprq0\fttruetype Times New Roman;}}
	{\colortbl
	\red0\green0\blue0;
	\red255\green255\blue255;}

I don't know what this is.

Rich text is something like this.

	<bold>Now</bold> is the time for <italic>all</italic>
	good men
	<smaller>(and <<women>)</smaller> to
	<ignoreme>come</ignoreme>

	to the aid of their

Emacs 20/21 can display this with Mew, of course, with mark-up
tags removed.

mew-summary-pipe-message sends the content in the Message mode. So,
executing mew-summary-pipe-message with "cat" displays with mark-up
tags removed. (The bold/italic face are removed.)

Executing mew-summary-pipe-message with "cat" after ",", the entire
file of the raw message is passed to the "cat" command.

I don't see any problems on Emacs 20/21.
