I dunno, it works for me. 

Does `K b' still only shows one button?

Maybe you could run the raw article through

openssl smime -in MAIL -decrypt -recip YOURKEY

or something to make sure it contains (a properly formatted)
attachment?

Or experiment by sending yourself a encrypted mail with an attachment
to see if it works (that's how I tested it).  Maybe there is something
in how some other mailer handle encrypted multiparts.
