Re: Help with make install to a non-default directory - Emacs not finding lisp files maybe?

Ah! Overnight it occured to my sleeping brain that maybe the "mm-"
variables are only defined after Gnus is started, and sure enough that
is the case. So _please ignore_ the above explorations.

Backing up to here:

Once Gnus is started, I have in 24.3.50:

   mm-text-html-renderer is a variable defined in `mm-decode.el'.  Its
   value is html2text

So the default values have changed between 24.3.1 and 24.3.50.

In any case, I have now set this variable to shr. But html emails are
_still not_ being rendered.

What next ought I to look at?
