Subject: MIME parts not saved
Date: Fri, 02 Aug 2013 17:17:26 +1100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87wqo439c9.fsf@otago.ac.nz> (raw)
When I try to view an attachement in an email message (a MS Word
document or PDF, for example), Gnus helpfully tells me that xdg-open is
opening /tmp/mm* . But nothing ever happens. In a sepratate terminal
window I say ls /tmp/mm*, but there are no files of that pattern.
So then I try to save the part locally, am prompted for a location and
save the file. Great! The file is created. Except that when I go to
open it, I find that it is empty, i.e. 0 bytes.
I have no clue how to start debugging this. What infomation shouldl I
provide to anyone who would like to help me? My whole .emacs and/or
.gnus.el?
Ma Gnus v0.17, Emacs 24.3.50.1 on Fedora 19. Is any other information
relevant?
Thanks,
John
