Thanks a lot for such detailed and patient instructions. I just tested
again the pipe method I sent to the maillist and I apologized I was
totally out of track. Actually the following should be the correct
text/html; cat %s | iconv -f %{charset} -t utf-8 | elinks ; copiousoutput;
But this has a drawback---> If I press v to view the attachments and
choose to view the text/html attachment then there will be a
mistake--> I guess here the pipe is not allowed. But it is not a big
problem because I guess very few people need to view html message in
this way. Also I didn't use lynx because for I don't why but among all
text-based web-brower I tested, elinks is the only one can recognize
pipe input as a "url" page and gives out the correct page.
So I guess I need your suggestion to toggle different application to
view html in attachment. I will test it later. Thanks a lot for the
suggestion:)
