Display emails with a .eml attachment

[Damien Cassou]

Hi,

I sometimes receive emails with empty body and just 1 attachment
containing a .eml file. What is the best way to handle these emails
(reply to them, open the possible attachments inside the .eml, ...)?

Thanks

I'm also interested in this question...

Hi,

I have set xdg to open *.eml files with emacs and added the following in
my configuration:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
;; .eml files are emails
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.eml$" . mail-mode))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

When an e-mail contains a *.eml attachment I press 'o' and the
corresponding number to open it in the current window.

It works fine for me.
