The really annoying thing is that some mail is multipart where the text/plain is just “sorry, your email client does not support html”. Yeah thanks a lot but it does, it’s just I have it set to prefer text/plain, because I don’t want to look at the html dump version unless I have to.
If those people had simply sent only text/html and not a useless text/plain that only says that kind of stuff then everything would have worked fine.
Stuff like that makes me want to quit using mutt, and no fault of mutt mind you.
But laziness has kept me to using mutt for reading my self hosted mail for many years now.
I commend you for using “laziness” and “self hosted email” in the same sentence. I ran Mail-in-a-box a few years ago on a cheap VPS. Then I realized just how much I don’t want to do that. It was fun being my own email provider, even if it was only for a secondary account, but the risks definitely outweigh the benefits.
