Ok. I've just installed changes which are bigger than what
I expected at first. I first thought that we could use the
code in rmailmm.el almost directly, but found some problems.
Among them, these were fairly big problems:
(1) It doesn't handle a nested multipart which typically
happen in a message that contains forwarded multipart
message.
(2) Handling of a message that has big attachments is very
slow because it builds decoded data string before
just showing the button
"Attached XXXX file: FILENAME.pdf (XXXkB)"
We should build a data to be saved on the fly
(i.e. after user's clicking).
Now the default value of rmail-enable-mime is t, and thus a
MIME message is properly decoded in RMAIL buffer
automatically. One can still customize rmail-enable-mime to
nil, and type the command 'v' to view a decoded message in
the separete "*RMAIL*" buffer as before.
By the way, in the long run, I think it is better to utilize
gnus/mm*.el for rmail instead of further improving
rmailmm.el.
