Subject: Gnus doesn't display all parts of a multipart message
Date: 19 Jul 2001 18:46:58 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <873d7sc45p.fsf@lynx.ionific.com> (raw)

Greetings,

I got a weird mail from a colleague who uses Outlook.  To me it
seems to be a multipart message where the first part is also a
multipart message, which consists of two alternative parts (plain
text and HTML).  The rest of the top-level parts are images.  The
top-level multipart message, as far as I can see, is not
multipart/alternative, but multipart/related, or at least that's
what I think it should be.  Not that I really know what
multipart/related means, but I can guess :)  In any case, Gnus
displays only the other alternative (text message) from the first
part but not the other top-level parts (images) so I can't
save them.

The mail (stored from a buffer gotten with ``C-u g'') is available
at <http://www.iki.fi/azure/var/bugreports/mimekala.txt>.  I have
edited all the content away -- I hope I didn't fuck up anything
relevant while doing that (I left some content to all parts).

Perhaps you can tell if there is something wrong with the mail
(i.e. Outlook is faulty) or that it is ok and those image-parts
should be displayed (i.e. Gnus is faulty).

I'm somewhat old OGnus dated 2001-04-12 in Emacs 20.7.  If you
think this is something that is fixed in the latest CVS version,
I'll try it (if you don't think so, I'd rather keep using this one
as it works otherwise fine).

Thanks,
