[De-lurk] Speaking as a long-time Gnus user, but only a recent Gnus MIME user, I'd strongly suggest the Message manual. User's shouldn't have to care that MIME is handled by a separate library because as far as they're concerned they're adding an attachment in Gnus. So why should they want to look in a different manual for part of the message sending process? Besides, any manual that starts with "This is not a manual meant for users..." is a little bit off-putting. On the topic of MIME, is there a way of editing the parameters of a part that has error checking and completion (similar to when a part is created)? Due to their complexity, a bit of hand holding here would be very useful (for instance, having completion list for valid values for 'disposition'. Finding out what they are is not straightforward).
