Package: alpine
Version: 2.21+dfsg1-1+b1
Severity: normal

In pine, when I get an HTML eMail, I press cursor-right to get to this view:

   1     4 lines   Text/PLAIN
   2    14 lines   Text/HTML

Then I go to the second line and press cursor-right again, and it renders
the HTML internally, with actionable links even.

In alpine, however, it asks this instead:

View selected Attachment?
Y [Yes]
N No

However, when I press Y/Enter, when started from X11, it runs Opera on
the file (which is almost never the thing I want), and when started from
a terminal (e.g. via ssh), it just does *nothing* so I consider it a bug,
with the preferred fix being internal rendering just like pine, and the
alternatively accepted lazy solution being it using lynx to display it.
