Could you post what version of bogofilter you're using?  The latest one
does include code to through out HTML comments like this:
  to<!-- -->ner cart<!-- -->ridge
and give you what you would see in a browser, mainly:
  toner cartridge

I'm not sure about bogus HTML tags though.  It would be nice to get some
sort of number representing how poorly writen an HTML page is.
