You would need some tool that lets you apply Tidy to the text/html parts
of the mail bodies. There are various modules for MIME, mbox, and Tidy
handling on CPAN if you happen to be a Perl programmer. I am not sure
how the yahoo2mbox script works, but it might also make sense to adapt
it so that it calls Tidy appropriately.
