=> Does your extension do anything about the mime and attachments problem when 
you reply to those ?

I try to do a little--tiny--bit of MIME handling:

        check for a "text/html" part
        check for "application/*" parts

        if either is found, use:
                /usr/bin/mhshow -type text -type multipart -type message 
-nopause -nomoreproc
        to attempt to create a 'clean' message as the basis for the
        reply

this is semi-successful, crude, and far from universal.
