Thanks.

However, the code itself (mm-inline-image and gnus-rescale-image) do not
work as one would expect.  Two things:

1. The rescaling as implemented will only work properly for landscape
   images when *both* dimensions of the image exceed the dimensions of
   the window.  Ideally, the scaling should be done to cater for the
   dimension that requires the greater ratio of scaling.
2. For some reason, my value of mm-inline-large-images-proportion is
   ignored and the default (0.9) is used.  I've tried edebugging but I
   cannot figure out what the problem might be.
