Hi Allie,

Except that what is being requested here is the opposite. Those of us
who have been on the list a while know that the lack of proper Mime
Digest support is one of Alex's chief complaints and his main reason
for staying with the 'P' program. This request is for *less*
discrimination of digests than TB is giving right now - to congeal a
digest into a single, long message, instead of breaking it into
component attachments.
FWIW, if the attachments are content type Text then they should appear
as Tabs at the bottom of the view window. Each Tab should contain a
distinct message. This should get around the lack of discernable file
extension and the resulting lack of association for the attachments
when you attempt to open then. I don't know for sure - I have never
wanted nor requested digests, preferring separate and threaded
messages.
