I have to defend my use of exmh against the majority of thunderbird and
outlook users, using it since Nov 1993 and I'm quite happy with it.

Releasing a new version with faster decoding support of encoded attachments
would help a lot.
Since thunderbird, outlook and apple mail users don't care about the size of
their mail, decoding of 5MB "messages ... bloated" with
"MIME/multipart/HTML/RichText/PDF multimedia monstrosities"
(Michael O'Donnell) lasts long on my aged sparc/solaris environment.

And if I may add a second wish, solving the mangeling of utf-8/iso8859-1
character problem mentioned by Ken Hornstein (18 Apr 2012) would be great too.
I encounter such difficulties more and more with E-Mails I got
from my dear colleagues.
And the problem is older than the introduction of nmh1.4.

Bis dann
Klaus
