Comment:
Hi @Anachron, thank you for sharing your approach for opening html emails. I built upon your example for an approach that works for me:
```
ATTACH="$(mshow -t . | dmenu)"
MIME="$(echo "$ATTACH" | cut -f 2 -d ":" | cut -f 2 -d " ")"
ATTACHNUM="$(echo "$ATTACH" | cut -f1 -d':')"
tmp="$(mktemp '/tmp/mblaze.XXXXXX')"
mshow -O . "$ATTACHNUM" > "$tmp"
# replace this with xdg?
case "$MIME" in
"application/pdf")
zathura "$tmp"
;;
"text/html")
firefox "$tmp"
;;
# More stuff for pngs and stuff?
esac
```
I use it as a general tool for extracting all attachments in emails in my email script I made for my pinephone:
https://git.sr.ht/~anjan/sxmo-userscripts/tree/master/mail.sh#L79
I dont know if my approach is the best but it works for emails with multi html and works as a general attachment extractor.
