Thanks for all your help, fellow listmembers! I understand it first needs to be decrypted, but I am not sure whether I do understand the second part. I don't want the binary/octet-stream inside the multipart/encrypted to be rendered automatically. It's fine if it just shows the default message [1]. I don't have a problem opening the binary/octet-stream part as long as it is not included in a multipart/encrypted container. The problem is, I can't select it binary/octet-stream within the multipart/encrypted container as, after I hit "v" the inital view the hierarchy is collapsed and is rendered as quoted above. If I scroll down to the multipart/encrypted part, then hit enter, it'll reveal all parts it contains but it'll be shown as plain text (and I am not able to specifically select the binary/octet-stream part and hit enter to open in it's default application. [1] ... is unsupported (use 'v' to view this part) -- Rejo Zenger . <r...@zenger.nl> . 0x21DBEFD4 . <https://rejo.zenger.nl> GPG encrypted e-mail preferred . +31.6.39642738 . @rejozenger
