Subject: Gnus *does* inline attachments

Hi,

following up to the Content-Disposition discussions:

Gnus does inline mime-parts that have "Content-Disposition:
attachment", if they are of type "text/plain" (maybe other types,
too). It does not for "application/octet-stream".

This is quite inconvenient if the mail partner knows what she's doing
and uses a mail agent that does the right thing (a rare event, I'll
admit).

I think no attachments should be inlined by default. A toggle that 
inlines all attachments (for broken mail) would be fine, too.

        Robbe
