Attachments loose their names!

As you probably know, MIME is a standard that basically lets a
single (email) file "contain" mutiple typed "parts". Types
include text, html and multimedia etc.
>Content-Disposition: inline
This above line is saying that the corresponsing "part" should
be displayed "inline" by the email browser (rather than as say
an attachment icon). As you note, PMMail doesn't do this.
Note this is not a bug, the filed is "advisory", and so it's legal
to ignore this, but it would be nice if PMMAIL did obey it when it
can - note it would be hard (not impossible) to get it to display
mutimedia and pdf files etc inline, but text and html should be no
problem at all).
Trevor: Can you add another feature request, to support a
Content-Disposition of "inline" for MIME types
like text and text/html that can currently be rendered
by PMMAIL?
