Does Yahoo do anything to keep malformed HTML from breaking its layout?

Hello:

We are writing a site that allows users to display HTML email
in a page, much like Yahoo. If the HTML is malformed, it can break 
our page layout.

I tried several tests on Yahoo's service sending all kinds
of broken HTML.  I was able to have the display show up incorrectly,
but none of the breakdowns was catastrophic.

Does anyone know if Yahoo is doing anything special to prevent 
the layout of its pages from being broken by malformed HTML
in email messages?

Thanks,
	Neil
