Re: [Evolution] Some attachments don't show up in evolution.

[Not Zed <notzed ximian com>]

It could be related though.  a multipart/related base part that doesn't
reference the parts that follow.  Without seeing the mail I cant' really

based on the type of parts in a multipart, it ins't always accurate.

That multipart/related fix didn't make it into stable afaik either.
