@David
Thanks for the comment :-)

I think if you read the Documentation 
https://docs.python.org/2/library/mailcap.html
this may lead new programmers, wich may never heard of Shell Injections before, 
step by step directly to write insecure webbbrowsers and/or mail readers. At 
least there should be a warning in the docs !
   
You ask why run-mailcap do not use quotig, i believe because quoting is not an 
easy thing to do, i attached a demo ;-)

Thank you.
