I currently use GNU Emacs 24.5.1 which still hast this problem. I quickly tried version 25.0.92 which seem to have it fixed. For me you could consider closing this issue, because the new Emacs version should be released sooner than later and the workaround (at least for Python files) is to send them as non-inline attachments.
