I've cleaned up the function somewhat, I'll include it immediately
below by inserting it in a org-mode src_block and then exporting it to
html, so those with html mail readers should see a nicely fontified
version of the source code.

I have looked somewhat at both VM and Wanderlust, but they appear to use
their own mime encoding schemes other than mml, so this won't work as-is
in those mail clients. That said, assuming they also use simple mime
encoding strings it should be hard to replace the mml specific mime
delimiters presented as strings in the above functions with string
delimiters appropriate for the other mail agents.
also, I have to say I feel bad about publishing code which promotes the
use of HTML mail. Generally I feel that everyone would be better off if
they just used fixed width text email clients. As a concession to that
intuition, if this function is called with a prefix argument, it will
wrap the region (or entire email) as html in <pre></pre> tags ensuring
that it will be rendered in a fixed-with font no-matter the receivers
email client, so the following table should actually look like a
table...
