Display attached images via image mode

Display attached images via image mode

[Göktuğ Kayaalp]

Hi,

I’d like to use Emacs’ image-mode  to view images attached to my emails.
When I  hit RET on  an image, pops up  an imagemagick window.   I’ve set
mm-enable-external to nil,  and then it starting saving them  when I hit
RET.  The manual is really scarce about MIME.  How can I achieve this?

BTW when I hit E, the image is inserted into the buffer, and this is not
what I want.   I want the image to  get its proper buffer, as  I can use
image-mode to zoom in & out, etc.

Thanks,
-gk

The most easy way would be to type `c' on the MIME tag, that looks
like [7. image/png; data.png], for an image to view.
Though the MIME tag for an image inlined in the article buffer is
hidden by default, you can toggle it by `M-t' in the summary buffer.
