3.9.2 Configuration of decodemail.

The following common configuration statements affect the behavior of decodemail:

Notably, the mime statement can be used to extend the list of types which are decoded. For example, in the file ~/.decodemail (other locations are possible, see configuration), you could have:

# base64/qp decode these mime types also:
mime {
  text-type "application/x-bibtex";
  text-type "application/x-tex";
}

Since the list of textual mime types is open-ended, with new types being used at any time, we do not attempt to make the built-in list comprehensive.
