I recently managed to set up my mailcap so that [Mutt](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutt_(email_client)) can show HTML e-mails in the message window:
# ~/.mailcap
text/html; lynx -dump '%s' | more; nametemplate=%s.html; copiousoutput;
which is automated by:
# ~/.muttrc
auto_view text/html
Although I think [Lynx](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lynx_(web_browser)) does a decent job on converting the HTML to text, sometimes this doesn't cut it and I would like to be able to open the HTML attachment in my web browser [Luakit](https://luakit.github.io/) .
Is there a way to transparently do this? A good workflow for me would look like:
1. open mail (Lynx converts it)
2. see that it is too complicated for Lynx
3. press v
4. navigate to HTML attachment
5. press Enter to open the mail in Luakit.
