Outlook rule to convert incoming email to plain-text

email-filtermicrosoft-outlook

We all have those people who decide to put a ton of junk mark-up in their emails and make it nearly impossible to read. What I'd like to have is a rule in Outlook 2010 that as soon as an email comes from a certain person (or probably group) it automatically converts it to plain-text instead of html. Any ideas?

I "solved" this same problem by assigning a mail rule to pick up only the specific problem email/s, and moves it to "Junk". In junk, all emails are converted to plain text.

Thus I read these problem emails in my junk folder, which is much better than the status quo of outlook "not responding" for a minute every time I accidentally preview the problem email.

EDIT: I also added a notification alert to the mail rule so that I wouldn't "miss" the email
