Hello, since a couple of weeks ago Gnus seems not to be including MIME attachemnts sometimes. I'm unsing emacs 20.6.2 and Gnus 5.8.6.
The attachments are simply not included in the message... It seems to happen with application/octet-strem. I tried to attach a text file (a LaTeX style), and send it to me (using local smtp), and I got the message without the attachment. Tried reconfiguring exim, didn't help. Tried also using a different smtp server - also, didn't help. I've checked teh smtp session trace, and the message really is empty there, so I suppose this is a MIME problem; the messages buffer is shown below. I've been using Gnus for a few years, and the .gnus file I use has been working for a long time without problems. (oh, well, I switched from Solaris to Debian this year, but the transition ws just perfect). So I took a look at the file, but found nothing suspicious there... Since this version of Gnus handles MIME natively, I removed all references to "mime" in my .gnus file (there were almost none), and it seemed to work... Until I noticed this problem. So, did anyone else have such a problem? Any ideas of what's going on? I'll try downgrading Gnus next, then I'll come back to tell you if that fixes the problem... J. Loading quail...
