It would be cool if Gnus used it in two situations: when attaching a file and when saving an attachment to disk. But, in the first case, you may want the file to be decompressed, so it would be nice to have an mml tag to indicate whether the file is to be decompressed or not (or maybe the filename to appear in the message, so that it gnus can guess whether it is to remain compressed or not). Same for saving a .gz attachment: it's quite annoying to have to uncompress a file twice :-( -- Alexandre Oliva http://www.dcc.unicamp.br/~oliva IC-Unicamp, Bra[sz]il oliva@{dcc.unicamp.br,guarana.{org,com}} aoliva@{acm.org,computer.org} oliva@{gnu.org,kaffe.org,{egcs,sourceware}.cygnus.com,samba.org} ** I may forward mail about projects to mailing lists; please use them
