Are you talking about attachments (e.g. images) inside
multipart/related MIME parts?  If so, what Apple mail is doing is
correct.  Cf. `gnus-mime-display-multipart-related-as-mixed' in Gnus:

,----[ (info "(gnus)MIME Commands") ]
| `gnus-mime-display-multipart-related-as-mixed'
|      Display "multipart/related" parts as "multipart/mixed".
| 
|      If displaying "text/html" is discouraged, see
|      `mm-discouraged-alternatives', images or other material inside a
|      "multipart/related" part might be overlooked when this variable is
|      `nil'.  *Note Display Customization: (emacs-mime)Display
|      Customization.

Bye, Reiner.
