I recommend Moody's rmime.el library available from
http://www.cinti.net/~rmoody/rmime/
It requires external programs like metamail and mmencode to work.
See http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/RmailMime for more
information.

I'm having problems in the configuration of mh-e and mmenconde.
Can anybody show me the section for configure mh-e (mail for emacs) and
mmenconde in the dotemacs?
When i try to open mh-e in emacs with mh-rmail, i get that emacs can't
found install-mh file or directory. How can i solve this problem?
And if possible, what are others applications for reading mails?
What are the difference between mh-e and VM? I suppose that is two
programs that do the same.
Thanks,
Pedro

Hi Pedro,
what system are you using? Debian Sarge I guess, right?
> I'm having problems in the configuration of mh-e and mmenconde.
Your subject line talks about rmail but rmail is not mh-e. mh-e is the
emacs frontend of nmh, the "new mail handler" which followed mh, the
unix mail handler. Now, what are you looking for to use: rmail or mh-e?

Should you intend to use mh-e I therefore suggest to first study the info
file for nmh:
"To get started using nmh, put the directory /usr/bin/mh on your
$PATH. This is best done in one of the files: .profile, .login,
.bashrc, or .cshrc in your home directory. (Check the manual entry
for the shell you use, in case you don't know how to do this.) Run
the install-mh command. If you've never used nmh before, it will
create the necessary default files and directories after asking you
if you wish it to do so."
After you have done this mh-e should work out of the box greatly
... you'll gonna see :-)

Within emacs?

I haven't used VM, just took a short look on it but stick with mh-e
then. rmail, AFAIK, is the emacs standard mail tool. mh-e is explained
shortly above. VM (I think it stands for "view mail") is another mail
tool for use with emacs.

Catching up on the list... Sorry for the last post.
If you are using MH-E and Emacs-21 (rather from CVS Emacs), then you
really should try the separetely available MH-E from
http://mh-e.sourceforge.net/
This version will handle MIME pretty natively through gnus (so it's also
best to have an updated gnus installation as well).
If you are using Debian, install the packages:
mh-e, gnus, compface, swish++, picon-domains, w3m-el

So to send mail you need to MUA ? Or did I misunderstand something ?

If you meant "two", no the user doesn't need to directly use gnus. MH-E
transparently uses gnus as a library of sorts. Why re-invent code?
Try MH-E, you might like it! Of source it requires that you use an
MH-style email layout. Create a test user to try it out maybe?

There's a an elisp called either etach or e-tach. it will allow you to
save or add attachments in rmail.
