Description Milan Crha 2013-01-14 18:57:31 UTC 
Moving this from a downstream bug report:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=893923

Long story short: the multipart/related hides attachments from a view. Event the RFC 2387 [1] suggests that the parts in multipart/related are meant to be relevant for the part view, and I understand it as also completely addressed by the displayed part, then some clients add also attachments inside the other multipart/related parts. Thus Evolution should not hide those unaddressed parts from view.

for evolution;

This tries to check which subparts are addressed and which not in the multipart/related displayed part, and those which are not are added at attachments into the view. It makes the test messages from the downstream bug show properly for me.
Comment 2 Milan Crha 2013-01-17 19:08:50 UTC 
I got a confirmation from the downstream reporter that it works for him, thus I'm commit this:

Created commit 37699de in evo master (3.7.5+)
