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..
