Would it be possible for scan to detect MIME messages and remove the initial
MIME explanation text?
e.g.
This message is in MIME format. Since your mail reader does not understand...
I find that >50% of the messages I get contain that string (local Exchange
users ;-/) - which makes my scan listing (which contains the first x chars of
the message) a bit useless:
It's not possible at the moment. Currently, only mhn and mhbuild know how
to parse a MIME message (which is non-trivial). This may change in the future
as I move the MIME parsing code of mhn into a library.
