To avoid confusion: By inline I meant the content-disposition. The
visual results would combine the best of both. But I suspect the results
somwhat depend on the mailer in use.

It's completely up to you. I don't charge for python cycles. :)

So far I got

[alias]
email-xen  = email --attach --inline --to 'Xen <xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>'
email-xapi = email --review --inline --to 'Xen API 
<xen-api@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>'

Maybe Pasi knows a decent corner on the wiki where this stuff can
converge to gatekeeper preferences.

Heard this before.

I doubt fetchmail tries to be smart about the message body.

I never worked with munpack.

I noticed that mailman adds some filtering even when forwarding, because
the content-disposition=inline gets stripped. But I also think mailman
breaking diffs would be kind of gross..

Cheers,
Daniel
