I get no default (initial input) when using `t' in with v5-10 or No
Gnus without my patch (tested with a minimal ~/.gnus.el) in the MIME
preview (`mml-preview'):

< #part type="application/octet-stream" filename="/etc/htdig/cookies.txt" disposition=attachment description=foo>
< #/part>
< #part type="application/octet-stream" filename="~/bar.wav" disposition=attachment>
< #/part>

(you need to remove the space before `#'.)

With these MIME part headers (`C-u M-x mml-preview RET'):

,----
| Content-Type: application/octet-stream
| Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=cookies.txt
| Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
| Content-Description: foo
`----

,----
| Content-Type: application/octet-stream
| Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=bar.wav
`----

Can you show me the MIME part headers or MML part you used?
