EML mail format

view EML by using bash

You could extract the html body and view the results in a web browser:
cat ~/bin/eml2html 

email="$1"
sed -n '/<html>/,${$!p}' "$email" >/tmp/temp.html
firefox "file:///tmp/temp.html"
rm /tmp/temp.html

chmod +x ~/bin/eml2html

tested on an html email saved using Thunderbird.
copy it to your ~/bin/ directory
