I then do a view-interactive if I actually want to read it. I specify a shell script that calls netscape with the -remote option to pop up a new window as the viewer. I purposely do not pass the part to netscape automatically. 99% of the text/html I get I don't actually want to see. Unfortunately a lot of people at work send messages that contain both text/plain and text/html but send it as multipart/mixed instead of multipart/alternative so the text/html is just a redundant attachment. -- Dave Goldberg david.goldberg6@verizon.net
