When I change in gnus-dired-attach

	(mml-attach-file (car files-to-attach)
			 (or (mm-default-file-encoding (car files-to-attach))
			     "application/octet-stream") nil)

To 

	(mml-attach-file (car files-to-attach)
			     (mml-minibuffer-read-type (car files-to-attach)) )

Then it works as I expect, however the interactive call of that function
is too complicated for me, usually I would do a

(defun my-dired-attach (&optional arg)
  (interactive "P")
   (if arg
   (New code)
   (old code)))
