Gnus: yes (since 5.8.0, the first MIME-aware version)

I'm not actually clear how much this is a good thing; at some level,
we do want people reporting bugs. (Though at the same level, we also
want them reading and using debian-user, and "get a real MUA" is a
common sentiment there.) But yeah, its unnamed inbound MIME handling
is pretty terrible; content-disposition is completely ignored, so if I
attach a file to mail, the recipient sees my .signature as a separate
attachment...
