In command line you might have luck with

   mhn -list <msgno>	to see what parts are contained in the message
   mhn -store -auto	to unpack the message into the current folder

Good luck....

Thanks, all.  I've been right-clicking on everything in sight, but am
embarrassed to say I had missed doing so on the attachment's headers.
It's not quite what I was looking for, but it's closer than what I've
been doing.  If I ever get a free weekend, I might even be able to
add to that code a little.

Regards,

Marion

If the inner msg you want to repl to is always the Nth part, then maybe
adding -part N to mhshow invocation in the enclosed script will be a whole
cli solution?  Or strip -part N from $* and use it in mhshow (at that point
i'd recode in perl.)

Fyi/fwiw, I call the script "replx", and I use it a lot these days.  It uses
mhshow to pretty print the enclosed msg you're replying to--increasing
necessary with so many html-only and other quoted-printable encoded msgs
being sent.  See also the exmh archives ca Jun 2004.

rm has worked well for a little over six years now?
