Hi I have tried using this patch and it did give an identical emacs
buffer when replying to text/plain or multipart/alternative messages
except for two things:

the old one put a line in the reply for each attachment not being
included in the reply (eg "Attachment: file.pdf (application/pdf)" ) and
the new one does not.

and your version does not include text/plain attachments with
disposition attachment (obviously as the cli part does not).

[Note I am not saying whether either of these correct or not, just that
they are changes.]

It also worked nicely on the html only messages I tried it on.

I have not reviewed the lisp yet; I will try and have a look at it but I
am a lisp beginner.

Best wishes

Mark

using your patch-set my recent reply From: modification wasn't there!
