Will you do IMAP URLs as well? http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2192.html They could be a good start towards an infrastructure for doing delayed loading of attachments in nnimap mail groups. nnimap could replace the attachment MIME parts with an URL external body message part http://www.landfield.com/rfcs/rfc2017.html and when opening the part, the contents of the URL would be fetched and inserted inline (that is, if Simon hasn't already fixed this in a different way and I haven't been paying attention...:-) ).
