nnfolder doesn't like mime & no base64 extracting(?)

[George J McNinch <McNinch.1@nd.edu>]

Hi--

Let me be a bit more precise than I was earlier....  I am using XEmacs
20.4.  pgnus 0.33.  I reported a bit earlier that Mime buttons were
not appearing in my article buffers when they should have been
("perhaps silly question" subject).  I use nnfolder for my mail
backend.

I just copied a piece of mime mail to a file and then opened it via
nndoc.  This seems to work -- my "multipart/mixed" piece of mail
appears in the nndoc summary as:

   [ 783: George J McNinch    ] <* mixed> test
R      [  11: George J McNinch    ] <1 text>
R      [ 536: George J McNinch    ] <2 jpeg> "billevans.jpg"
R      [ 216: George J McNinch    ] <3 text> ".emacs"

That looks right to me, and this _didn't_ work in my nnfolder:
mailbox. It is the same piece of mail. I promise.

So I guess I'm reporting that for some reason nnfolder doesn't like
the new mime-ish things. Unless I've done something flaky (which I'm
skeptical of).

I should also report that in the above mail, the content-type header is:

Content-Type: MULTIPART/MIXED; BOUNDARY="-2125855254-1539181240-906838750=:15717"

and the "section" header for the jpeg is:

---2125855254-1539181240-906838750=:15717
Content-Type: IMAGE/JPEG; name="billevans.jpg"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: BASE64
Content-ID: <Pine.SGI.3.95.980926143910.15717B@galois.math.nd.edu>
Content-Description: 

In the article buffer for <2 jpeg> I see the following

etc...

Clicking w/ mouse-2 on the button has no effect. Pressing v whilst in
the button and typing xv at the prompt doesn't work (this spawns xv
with no image). Somehow, I assume the image isn't being
"unbase64ed". I wasn't sure when that was supposed to happen.

Best,
George
