Hi,
A (likely) short-time mutt user: like 5 years, but still very much a newcomer!
I get a lot of messages on mutt, and they are increasingly now HTML messages
(largely coming From people perhaps using a web browser). Now, I would not like
to be seen using a browser to send or read email messages, but I can not and
should not control my senders' habits. What are the best ways to read such
email messages in mutt?
In particular, is there a way to inline these messages (losing whatever it
loses, such as remote images, etc, or perhaps not) and still read them in mutt?
Many thanks, and best wishes,
Ranjan
Like others, I use.mailcap suggestions plus a macro linked to a
function key to manually invoke lynx.
But I also maintain an active thunderbird process for those
once a week times I want a graphic type email reader.
