Convert HTML Mail to RTF without loosing the formating?

[matthias79]

Hi

is there any way to convert an Email from HTML to RTF without loosing
the formating?

I've only found HTML -> Plain Text -> RTF, but no way to bypass plain
text.

thanks, Matthias

As far as I know, no. You have to make the trip through Plain Text.

If Word is the editor, I think you can go directly from HTML to RTF.

WHy use RTF anyway? If the recipient isn't using Outlook, they're going to have a frustrating experience with the message.

Simple: i want to import the mail (with all formating and embedded
pictures) into a custom .net 2 application and display it in a RTF
Field.

saving the email as HTML would require additional (and separate)
storage and extra effort to display it.
