Hi Mr. Pauser! First a note: your mailer does not cut long lines. Instead they are sent without a line-break. Please configure it so it would, as quoting the message is annoying. Regarding your request: there is a free (as in speech) tool that allows converting Post Script (including EPS) and PDF into SVG (and other vector graphics formats). It is called pstoedit: http://www.pstoedit.net/pstoedit From my experience, it doesn't always work spectacularly. This is expected because of the complexity of the PostScript language and the fact that it is Turing Complete. As for Adobe Illustrator files, I think they are simply well-formed (but still valid) EPS files. Translating them directly into SVG may be less problematic than through an EPS converter.
