*****************************************
I have got metamail , metatool and ELM v8
*****************************************

Can someone tell me how to setup the. mailcap file when using ELM v8 and
Metatool to read a multipart message and read the message into Goleded.

I have tried

text/plain goled %s

and

message/rfc822 goled %s

All elm/metamail does is read the mesage sig into goleded, but displays
the message into a Elm "IO" window which just scrolls away in the
background which I cannot read.

eg here is the message I am trying to read.

Regards Kevin.
