I cannot read your email at all with K-9 Mail on Android, because 
text/markdown is not treated like text at all, and the file cannot be 
opened with any app I have installed at the moment. Frankly, I initially 
thought you sent some garbage by accident and ignored the mail.

Mutt at least tells me now that I'm dealing with text/markdown, so I 
manually added a mailcap entry:

text/markdown; iconv -f %{charset} -t utf-8 | pandoc -f markdown -t 
plain; copiousoutput

It works somewhat, but it mangles quotes quite badly since pandoc does 
not know about '>' quote markers (I quoted your mail in full and this is 
pretty much how it is rendered in mutt).


Cheers
Timo
