archiving sans attachments

archiving sans attachments

[Paul Stevenson]

Hello,
Is it possible for messages which were sent with attachments to be
archived without the attachment (but perhaps the MML code so one knows
what was going on?).  At the moment I'm just using Gcc: to an
appropriate nnfolder.

Sorry about using the list rather than the group, but no-one is
allowed to post usenet news here :-(

Gnus doesn't has such a feature. But the following code could do that.

(require 'gnus-msg)

(defadvice gnus-inews-do-gcc 
  (around gnus-news-do-gcc-inhibit-body-encoding  first activate)
  (let ((message-inhibit-body-encoding t))
    ad-do-it))

I'd like to know whether it works for you.

It does.  Thanks!

It could make trouble when you send messages with non-ascii characters.

Yes... the dreaded \201

Presumably I could write an alternative encoder which would encode
bits of the message according to context.  Until then, I use nøn-Áßçíì
characters rarely enough not to worry, I think.
