Help! Chin! Request for Yarn change!

The beta of Netscape 4.0 has recently become available. I believe
there is a switch in its configuration which allows the sending of
MIME multipart news/mail messages, with the first part being plain
text, and the second part being the same information in html form.

I am being FLOODED with a *huge* number of such news articles, and
for *every* one Yarn pops-up a dialog asking "Process MIME Message?"

These articles all have 'Content-Type: Multipart/Alternative' in
their MIME headers, meaning the content of the several parts is
interchangeable. Can Yarn be given the option to NOT display the
pop-up "Process MIME" question on Multipart/Alternative messages?
