Kurt, there is a variable called mm-alternative-precedence which tells Gnus which parts to show if there are alternatives. Obviously, the default setting is to show text/html over test/plain. To change this, put the following in your gnus-init-file (usually .gnus): (require 'mm-decode) (setq mm-alternative-precedence (cons "text/plain" (delete "text/plain" mm-alternative-precedence))) You don't really need to delete "text/plain", as Gnus just looks for the first match. I just think it looks prettier to only have one entry in the list. -- Jack Vinson <jvinson@chevax.ecs.umass.edu> http://www.cis.upenn.edu/~vinson/ Zippy: Okay, BARBRA STREISAND, I recognize you now!!

No, none of the variables for handling MIME are in a manual yet. I'm going to rename a few of them. -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) larsi@gnus.org * Lars Magne Ingebrigtsen ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread
