So much the worse, haha. But I am not sure which part actually started the xterm window -- perhaps you are right and it was the text/html part, not the audio/x-wav part which (I hope) would have been a button. Anyway, I have the following variables set, in addition to the ones mentioned above: mm-discouraged-alternatives's value is ("text/html" "text/richtext") mm-automatic-display's value is ("text/plain" "text/enriched" "text/richtext" "text/html" "text/x-vcard" "image/.*" "message/delivery-status" "multipart/.*" "message/rfc822" "text/x-patch" "application/pgp-signature" "application/emacs-lisp" "application/x-pkcs7-signature" "application/pkcs7-signature" "application/x-pkcs7-mime" "application/pkcs7-mime") Does it seem plausible then that I got a mail with no text/plain and only text/html in it -- thus the HTML is displayed. And the reason is that text/html is a discouraged alternative -- but if it is the only alternative, it will be used. Correct? The correct solution would be to remove text/html from mm-automatic-display. Then I don't have to specify text/html as a discouraged alternative anymore -- or do I? Or would it make more sense to add text/html to gnus-buttonized-mime-types? Anyway, is there any other place but the "MIME Commands" node in the Gnus manual where such things are explained?

You quoted the *Message* buffer starting w3m, so I guess it would be the text/html part. > Does it seem plausible then that I got a mail with no text/plain and > only text/html in it -- thus the HTML is displayed.

Well, they are orthogonal, so you must decide. The first controls if text/html should be displayed automatically, and the latter which part of a multipart/altnerative to chose. > Or would it make more sense to add text/html to > gnus-buttonized-mime-types? I don't think so, this variable only control if you get a button or not. It doesn't do anything about automaically inlining the part or not. > Anyway, is there any other place but the "MIME Commands" node in the > Gnus manual where such things are explained?
