I guess using MIME structures like that more would make more people complain to devlopers of MUAs that don't handle this properly... I don't know many MUAs, but perhaps others do. Q: is content-disposition handled properly, especially for messag/rfc822 type attachments? (Or if not, are message attachments displayed inline by default?) KMail 1.5.1: yes Evolution: yes (already in 1.0.x IIRC) sylpheed? mozilla mail? (whatever the name of that thing is right now...) I guess quite critical would be mutt pine as especially developers are known to use textmode mail readers quite a lot. (Yes, I've stopped caring about users of a certain other widespread MUA, as you've probably guessed anyway when you notice me using PGP/MIME to sign messages...) cheers -- vbi -- random link of the day: http://fortytwo.ch/sienapei/laegoong
