I recently managed to set up my mailcap so that mutt can show HTML e-mails in the message window:
# ~/.mailcap
text/html; lynx -dump '%s' | more; nametemplate=%s.html; copiousoutput;
which is automated by:
# ~/.muttrc
auto_view text/html
Although I think lynx
does a decent job on converting the HTML to text, sometimes this doesn't cut it and I would like to be able to open the HTML attachment in my web browser (luakit
).
Is there a way to transparently do this? A good workflow for me would look like:
- open mail (
lynx
converts it) - see that it is too complicated for
lynx
- press "v"
- navigate to HTML attachment
- press "enter" to open the mail in
luakit
.
text/html; luakit %s
besides, auto_view doens't matter in this case, since html are actually attachments – daisy Jul 10 '12 at 9:45
