My laptop has a limited amount of memory, CPU time and battery life.

So... you make it a point not to read html emails on it?

FWIW, I can read HTML e-mails just fine via mutt in an SSH session. One doesn't need Chrome or Firefox to read them.

Not GP, but there are browsers that can render and dump HTML to plain text, like Lynx. You can of course also run remote X programs, but that seems a bit clunky.
