Not sure what to say; this works fine for me. You *are* in X, right?
When viewing the message, you hit 'v' to view the attachments, right?
And you're hitting "<Enter>" to view the highlighted attachment once in
the attachments screen?
(I'm not trying to be condescending -- just trying to make sure we're
both doing the same thing.)
Are you by any chance in a 'screen' session that was begun before X
started? That could cause problems, as DISPLAY won't be exported.
