Hi Iain,

Thanks again! I added the following code

require 'shellwords' 
unless sibling_types.member? "text/plain" 
    case content_type 
    when "text/html" 
        `/usr/bin/w3m -dump -T #{content_type} #{Shellwords.escape 
filename}` 
    end 
end

in a new hook ~/.sup/hooks/mime-decode.rb

Let's see how it works.

Best regards, 
Robert
