You seem to have an entry like the following in your mailcap file.
image/jpeg; display 'jpeg:%s'
Gnus quotes spaces with `\' using `shell-quote-argument', so
quoting a whole argument with '...' is excessive. Since Gnus
treats '%s' and "%s" as just %s, you can modify it into:
image/jpeg; display jpeg:'%s'
Furthermore, `display' seems to work without specifying image
types, so it will be able to simplify as
image/*; display '%s'
or
image/*; display %s
if you use this for only Gnus. If you don't have a mailcap file
personally, create the file named "~/.mailcap".

Not in ~/.mailcap -- I don't know where this is set.

Thank you, this works very well!

If I do this in ~/.mailcap, then the system seems to fall back to the
old and wrong default 'jpeg:%s', so I'll use the jpeg:'%s' option for
now.
Thank you,

Hi,
I have a problem with e-mails containing attached images with spaces
in the filename. Gnus launches the display program, but instead of
showing the image, display shows the "Browse and Select a File" menu.
In the *Message* buffer, I see something like
Displaying display 'jpeg:/tmp/emm.6484iRQ/a\ nice\ picture.jpg'...
and in the /tmp/emm.6484iRQ directory, I can see the jpg file, it's
just that it is not opened.
Does anyone have a fix for this?
I use No Gnus 0.6 (1 May edition), GNU Emacs 21.4 and ImageMagick
6.2.4.
Regards,
