24 ;;; Commentary:
25
26 ;; Note: Metamail does not have all the options which are compatible with
27 ;; the environment variables. For that reason, metamail.el has to
28 ;; hack the environment variables. In addition, there is no way to
29 ;; display all header fields without extra informative body messages
30 ;; which are suppressed by the "-q" option.
31
32 ;; The idea of using metamail to process MIME messages is from
33 ;; gnus-mime.el by Spike <Spike@world.std.com>.
