It would be nice to automatically inline text and images. However, we
should also provide a UI to override the default.

One idea, from apt-get, is to add "/<disposition>" to the filename. We
then get the dirname of the path. If it's a directory, then
<disposition> refers to a file; otherwise, we use the given disposition.

A couple of other Attach questions come to mind:

1. Can you put a space or comma-separated list of files in a single
Attach header field? Useful for including several files from a directory
(for example, in Emacs Attach: C-u M-! ls *.pdf RET).

2. What happens if the draft has already been MIME-ified? I'm thinking
MH-E compatibility here.

Jeff, you installed 1.6. Perhaps you can report back.

p.s. Sorry for the deluge. Only 425 more messages to go.
