message to move to in the specified direction, the message that was just

the undecoded @acronym{MIME} data. With a prefix argument, this
command toggles the display of only an entity at point.

To prevent Rmail from handling MIME decoded messages, change the

case, the @kbd{v} (@code{rmail-mime}) command instead creates a
