I removed text/html from mm-discouraged-alternatives and switched mm-text-html-renderer from w3m-standalone to w3m. Now the text/html body parts look fine and I see the links. Not seeing the links must be a deficiency of w3m-standalone. Correct? However, I forwarded an RSS article and was able to see both text/plain and text/html alternatives. It appears that the text/plain alternative looks like the text/html alternative. In other words, it has all of the HTML and no hard newlines. Therefore, it appears that this bug report is really about the creation of the text/plain alternative from an RSS article. It needs to be smarter about stripping the HTML, inserting URLs in parenthesis next to the link text, and inserting hard newlines at

s and filling the text. -- Bill Wohler http://www.newt.com/wohler/ GnuPG ID:610BD9AD Maintainer of comp.mail.mh FAQ and MH-E. Vote Libertarian! If you're passed on the right, you're in the wrong lane.
