No, you need to download text parts. It would be pointless to download the 15 multi-MB TIFF attachments as well.

Once we have that, the mhpath solution should just fall out. _______________________________________________ Nmh-workers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
