Problem MIME decoding in rmail |

I get a mail that is a MIME encoded GIF file that rmail attempts to decode and
display. I have (auto-image-file-mode 1) in my .emacs.
It comes up in rmail as an empty 1/2" square. So I write the mail to a file
and compare the GIF file with
a decoded file not from rmail. The only difference is that on line 32, at the
beginning of the line, the file via
rmail has a up-carrot and then an underscore as individual characters. The
proper file has a ^_ (ctrl underscore).
So I changed the ^_ (individual chars) to ^_ (ctrl underscore) and emacs then
displays it properly.
So somehow that one char didn't decode correctly. But there are a lot of ^_
(ctrl underscores) in the GIF and all the
rest decoded ok. I don't know why this one didn't.
I hope this is all clear enough. If not, please ask and I'll try again.
I did try with emacs -Q with the same results.
This is using emacs 22.0.95 on SuSE Linux x86_64 compile with gcc 3.4.6.
