To view the part in Emacs, you need create a function and put an entry
into mailcap-mime-data.  To show the part inline, you need add entries
into the following variables: mm-inline-media-tests, mm-inlined-types,
maybe mm-automatic-display.  Also, you'd better read mm-inline-text
for rendering html with w3.

BZL> Has anyone here done something like this?

There are some codes to render text/html with "lynx -dump". But I can
not remember where it is.
