Why is this a good idea, especially on the Emacs 23 branch, in the middle of a pretest? Previously, Rmail would never do anything with attachments without my say-so, and thus was one of the safest MUAs on Earth. Why change that now? Of course, if other Rmail users think we should make it t by default, I can always customize it back, so if I'm the only one who cares, let's leave it at t.
