if I remember well then the problem I had without setting
mime-w3m-safe-url-regexp to nil was that every time I tried to follow a link it
would ask me for confirmation and that drove me crazy. On the other hand, either
in wl or any other client, if I see a link in an email then I assume that it is
extremely unsafe to click it, unless the message is from a well known
source. That is, I normally click links from known people messages only. Does
that make sense?

If I inspect the variable it shows nil and it tells me that the original value
was "\\`cid:". Is that your same default?
