Thanks a lot - we are getting somwhere - the message is opened in conkeror (spelling error
in my original email), but always. Which makes sense, as
mm-text-html-renderer specifies how html emails should be rendered.

I would very much prefer the K H approach, where the mai is displayed in
emacs, and that I can open it in the external renderer (conkeror).

Cheers,

Rainer
