T-bird comes close, but no cigar. I've tinkered with it to try to make it do what Thomas suggested was proper (with which I agree). T-bird treats a message/rfc822 attachment as it would a text/plain attachment. You can do whatever you wish with the attachment _except_ pull it into a mail folder as a valid email. I may be missing something, but as I say this is my litmus test for an MUA which treats me like a technically educated human, so I've poked at a number of different versions of it and never been able to make it behave this way. > -- Lindsay Haisley | "The only unchanging certainty FMP Computer Services | is the certainty of change" 512-259-1190 | http://www.fmp.com | - Ancient wisdom, all cultures ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
