In the example you gave the only thing that is supposed to be showing up is a 0x0 inline frame (an <iframe>). Trust me it is showing up. The part that claims it is wave file is referenced by the iframe so evolution doesn't show a save widget for that part, this is same way it treats inline images. This is a very reasonable way to interpret this intentionally broken message.
One way I can think of that might improve the situation is to check the mime type of the part and compare it to the mime type that gtkhtml requests on that stream, see the difference and add the the save part widget since it doesn't match. On the other hand I'm not sure if it is really worth the effort. --Larry On Fri, 2002-04-26 at 09:27, John Weber wrote: > My original post to this thread referenced the example on the Ximian > users list.
