Mutt does have pretty decent support for text/enriched. Also, the
rtfreader program I know about actually reads application/ms-rtf or the
various versions of RTF generated by other programs (I've only ever
gotten them with ms-rtf, but I know nextstep used to output it)
At one point, text/enriched was called text/richtext, but this was not
the same richtext as RTF.
