pgnus MIME encoding?

pgnus MIME encoding?

[Norman Walsh]

Sorry if this is RTFM.  I see that pgnus understands and decodes
MIME attachments (nicely, I might add).  I scanned through the
manual, but didn't see any commands for adding a MIME
attachement to a message.  Is this not yet implemented?

                                        Cheers,
                                          norm

Correct.  Gnus does not yet have any builtin functionality for
composing anything interesting with MIME.

What about `gnus-uu-post-insert-binary-in-article'?

(Despite the `uu' it is also said to support base64 encoding.)

Sorry, that's a bad joke.
You can do it, if you load gnus-uu.el before,
but it won't do much ...

I assume it wasn't well maintained
(at least until recently -- but things change all the time ...),
because before *p*gnus, MIME was pretty much deprecated here.

Kind regards,
