We should have a richer way of specifying what content types are to
be displayed ... but we don't.  That code is kind of mess.

I guess ... from looking at the code, what we do EXACTLY is:

- Always display a text part, regardless of the disposition
- If we either have textonly set (the default) or inlineonly set (the default)
  and it is an attachment, output a marker.  Otherwise, try to display it
  (and complaint if it cannot).

So there's really no way (that I can tell right now) of doing what you
want, which is "display this particular application/ics message" but
display all others normally.

Other than 'sed -e s#application/ics#text/calendar#', no.  I was hoping
mhfixmsg could do that, but it seems like right now it cannot (unless I
misunderstood the man page, which is always possible).

You COULD complain to meetup.com; sending out application/ics is total crap.
