If you're unable to switch to a Mac, then you're probably safest with an
email reader that is incapable of handling html.


Ditto!

Sure, it's a nuisance to get a couple of these virus e-mails in your "in" box. But when you see an e-mail with lots of html and a ".exe" attachment, it's a great feeling to know that it won't hurt your Linux workstation at all.
