.EML files as plain text?

What will open them in Linux & not display code?

From what I could quickly see: Thunderbird will do it. But,

Or the AUR… I’d hate to do it without munpack.

If you already use Thunderbird for email, then associating .eml files with Thunderbird should be the most convenient way to handle them.

The same applies if you use another app for email.
