I'm a gnus newbie, at least as far as mail goes (been using it for
news for years). I'm trying to get gnus to open attachments in email
messages.
I've created a ~/.mailcap file like
,----
| application/ms-word; start %s
| application/* start "" %s
`----
Somewhere I read the second line was supposed to be sufficient; when
that didn't work, I added the first.
I have
,----
| ;; from http://www.gnus.org/manual/gnus_107.html#SEC106
|
| (setq mm-file-name-rewrite-functions
| '(mm-file-name-trim-whitespace
| mm-file-name-collapse-whitespace
| mm-file-name-replace-whitespace))
`----
in my .gnus to get rid of extraneous whitespace.
Still, practically anything I do with a MIME part ends up asking to
save the MIME part.
There are seemingly complex solutions posted various places, but I
don't want to clutter up my machine needlessly, and someone (Kai?)
posted in one of these places that the simple .mailcap solution should
work.
Suggestions?
Thanks,
Bill
