Dear Tim, John and Colin,
You are right Tim, for Gnus, the solution to my problem was here :
https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/MimeTypesWithGnus
and here:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/info-gnus-english/2016-04/msg00002.html
But I just realize that Gnus gives the choice to open "internally", or
"externally"... :S
Best wishes and many thanks for your very kind help,
Jo.
