Hi,

Does the way Gnus splits attachments belong to a standard?

Currently, when Gnus splits attachments, the first part
and the last part contain a MIME boundary, and parts
that are in between are described as "partial" and
probably encoded in base64 or something.

I tried to read those parts with another mailer but
it couldn't manage to do anything with them; this
is why I wonder if it is a standard.

Also, how do I unsplit them with Gnus?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
