Subject: Problem saving attachment with latest CVS HEAD Gnus

Hi all,

I am using SXEmacs 22.1.6 patch 97, which as some may know is a
descendent of XEmacs 21.4.

I noticed problems saving an attachment of mime type
application/vnd.ms-powerpoint encoded in base64

I tracked it down to mm-insert-part calling mm-string-to-multibyte.
Previously it was calling mm-string-as-multibyte and when I changed it
back, it now works again.

I tracked the changed to revision 7.47 of lisp/mm-decode.el

I am not sure what the right fix is in this case, but it seems odd
that a mime type that could be binary is being attempted to be
interpreted as multibyte.


Any thoughts ?

Best regards,

     Nelson

I can send a sample of the message I got the problem, but since it is
1.4M gziped I am refraining from doing so to all.
