actually, it's not quite that bad.  press v to go into view attachments,
then press | to pipe to command.  pipe it to 'cat'.  or into pgp (with
appropriate command line options) if you want to decrypt or verify
signatures. 

irritating but not a show-stopper.

pine's broken. it doesn't properly handle mime attachments. i use it
because i like it, but the fact remains that it is broken.
