IMSEO this: > --=-=-= Content-Type: application/emacs-lisp Content-Disposition: inline is just plain wrong. The type is "text/emacs-lisp", since the Lisp is intended to be read by human beings, not processed by an Emacs Lisp interpreter to produce the elegant display. (Consider: this content type should be useful for discussion of buggy semantics, erroneous syntax, or just plain incomplete program fragments. If you want to feed it to the interpreter, just use C-x C-e!) Actually, personally I'd prefer "text/lisp; dialect=emacs-lisp". Now, RFC 2046 section 4.1.4 strongly recommends that an unrecognized text type be treated as text/plain, so the multipart alternative structure is redundant with my preferred content type of text/emacs-lisp. So any MUA that properly respects the standard will just DTRT at no cost. Regards, --=-=-=--
