However, I was wrong. It turns out that if I attach something with C-c C-a (or M-m-f, depending how I feel) then it only actually gets sent if it is the first thing in the message, but not if it is preceeded by text. I will now demostrate by attaching a tiny text file. (this'll probably work now someone else is looking. Whose law is that?) --=-=-= I attached it as application/octet-stream since I know that at least inline text parts work. Here it is as attached text, too --=-=-= Has this been noticed before and fixed, or have I goofed somewhere? -- . Paul Stevenson . Reasearch Fellow .
