mhfixmsg(1)'s -replacetextplain replaces the text/plain with a rendering of the text/html part. This is useful because the shipped text/plain is often poor. What if mhfixmsg could also append a new text/plain after the existing one, i.e. with a rank that's `better quality'. (Assuming RFCs allow two multipart/alternative with the same MIME type.) Then showing the email with `-prefer text/plain' would give mhfixmsg's version but the original would still be there for explicit reference with -part, etc. -- Cheers, Ralph. -- nmh-workers https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
