Open Attachment
Program to open is defined in the mailcap file.
A script openfile.sh is used to open files with the default application using xdg-open.
Attach multiple files at once
First, tag the files you want to send using t, then ; to apply the action on
all tagged files and finally <enter> to add them all.
Of ranger can be used with the A keybinding.
