I used to use demime or something. Nowadays there's so much html

When I receive an HTML message that I am interested in reading, I pass it
to a web browser for display. In order to do that, I normally do as
follows:
* While reading the message, I press "V",
* then I move to the TEXT/HTML attachment, and
* I press "X" to open the attachment as an eXternal command.
My url-viewers command is to "$HOME/fire _URL_" (including the quotes),
and $HOME/fire is a script that eats the stderr output
#!/bin/bash
/usr/bin/firefox "$1" &>/dev/null &
(as contributed by an Alpine user)
With that, I can read any html message I want, which for me is the
exception, not the rule.
