Yes:
| decode-copy ESC C decode a message and copy it to a file/mailbox
| decode-save ESC s decode a message and save it to a file/mailbox
Both functions give you a text file with QP decoded, charset
transcoded to current locale, HTML rendered, binary attachments deleted,
PGP decrypted, headers weeded, etc... They transmutt mail into text.
Beware: The <decode-save> variant *deletes* the original mail. Don't
self-foot-shoot you. ;-)
Bye! Alain.
