- DESCRIPTION
- The _s_h_o_w_e_x_t_e_r_n_a_l program will attempt to obtain the real
- body of a mail message that is included only by reference,
- using the MIME type "message/external-body". It is intended
- to be called by metamail via a mailcap entry like the fol-
- lowing:
-
- message/external-body; showexternal %s %{access-type}
- %{name} %{site} %{directory} %{mode} ; needsterminal
-
- If it succeeds in fetching the message body, showexternal
- will then call metamail to actually display it.
