No change, but I just discovered that some jpegs display as pictures
and some don't.  They all save to disk okay, though, so I don't think
it's mime-related in particular.

At first I thought the problem was related to the size of the jpeg, but
now I see that the number of lines in the article is not related.

Try viewing a variety of posts in alt.binaries.pictures.original as a 
test.  All of the articles under about 100-200 lines seem to display
normally, but a few larger ones display normally too.  Most of the
2000-4000-line articles display only the raw text.  The really big
ones will pop up the "Save" dialog, but that's the way Charles wrote
the code in header-pane.cc.
