Norm - To get from the ".png" file extension to "#image/png" for comp et al
do...
grep png /etc/mime.types
...assuming you have "mailcap" installed.
Also, it may be easier to just remember...
#image/png [b.png] b.png
There was a time when this form (generating Content-Description instead of
Content-Disposition: ... filename=) caused problems (with early Mac Mail.app
IIRC) but that's been 5, 10 years ago.
There is also a simpler way: you can just type "attach SoundShot.tgz" at
the Whatnow prompt, but you have to these mysterious settings in
~/.mh_profile...
send: -attach X-MH-Attach -attachformat 1
whatnow: -attach X-MH-Attach
Ken - Do you have some specific reason for generating "Content-Disposition:
attachment"?
I never done that and nobody's ever complained, not that that means a whole
lot, I
suppose.
