No, I don't think anything like this exists, but it could probably be
done using a bundle command (using the `canonical` input type) which is
described [as
follows](https://github.com/mailmate/mailmate_manual/wiki/Bundles):
“This is equivalent to the text displayed in MailMate when using the
“Prefer Plain Text” option. It is, most often, based on the
`text/plain` MIME part. The text is decoded (quoted-printable/base64),
deflowed (`format=flowed`), and converted to UTF-8.”
