I need a GUI client to parse 100 K of HTML that replaces 1 page of text.
These aren't just plain spammers, but businesses that I deal with regularly.
It seems that plaintext email is going the way of cursive writing.
Any suggestions for an MUA that can spit out rmail to port 25 ?
I use Most to browse e-mails & Gvim to edit replies.
If there's a link to goto an HTML version,
I R-click on the URL & choose to open it in Firefox.
If there's no link, but it's presented as HTML,
I copy-paste the URL to Firefox & open it similarly.
Mutt is so good, I'm willing to take this slight detour
rather than wade thro' the mud of a GUI client.

I startet migrating from Thunderbird to Mutt a year or two ago and it
took me a lot of searching through the interwebs re HTML.
Now I use www-client/w3m to represent HTML inline, anything fancy I open in
my main-browser. The mail is saved in a temporary directory. Pressing
'v', highlighting the 'text/html'-line an pressing 'm' does the trick.
From my .mutt/mailcap:
text/html; mkdir -p /tmp/mutt \; cp %s /tmp/mutt \; librewolf /tmp/mutt/$(basename
%s) &;
text/html; w3m -I %{charset} -T text/html; copiousoutput;
Kind regards,
Carsten
