message with large attachments needs quite a bit time to load

[Uwe Brauer]

Hi 

I am using GNU emacs master (commit 42ba6200af10c00c72)
and received a message with a 23 MB attachment.

It took quite some time to open this message. Is there any possibility,
just to ignore the attachment at first, read the message, and download
the attachment if needed? 


I can't find any variable which could possibly do this.

Regards

The solution seems to be to set 
(setq nnimap-fetch-partial-articles t)

Like this 

(setq gnus-secondary-select-methods
      '(
      	(nnimap "myserver"
        (nnimap-fetch-partial-articles t))))
