    What is the command to view a message in hex?

    I can't seem to find the toggle for that anymore.

    Cursor over a message in the message list and press <Ctrl+H>.

    Regards,
    Martin

    Thank you. I actually never used it that way. The first time I
    came across it was when I accidentally pressed just one key.
    Later, I stuck to that solution, but I rarely used it, so I
    forgot how I did it. But soon after I posted my call for help,
    I found it again: in the message list, press BkSp.

    Ah, I wasn't aware of <Backspace> invoking a hex-dump, must document that in the help text :)

    Is it in the German help?

    The BkSp also works when viewing messages in thread-view.

    Yes it is and it's now in the English help :)

    Ah, so it does, good spotting :)
