One thing I love about ascii-only email is that nmh correctly dumps
the output to the pager for all messages in the sequence selected.
When MIME email gets added to the mix, the user experience changes,
and I have to hit [ENTER] a number of times instead of simply [SPACE]
to view the email. I would love for nmh to default to this PAGER-ONLY
viewing of email, even the MIME stuff. Default to reading the
plain-text version, and if not available, parse it into plain-text and
send it to the pager. If the message cannot be represented in plain
text, simply output the mhlist information and keep going.
Hear hear!!! This seems like a must have for 2.0 to me. 80-90% of the
email I get is Mime email, so that would be a huge help. Another issue to
go along with the Enter enter enter bit is that when reading single
messages the header often scrolls off the top of the screen before the
pager kicks in, which is a pain in screen because you can't just grab the
scroll wheel/bar and take a look. I both of these are well within the
scope of the MIME cleanups being suggested.
