Warning Is Attachment

[Steve Evans]

That's it.  Anyone know how to change Outlook's bad behavior?  Eudora
starts by showing an attachment in the message list, but when opened
puts it inline.

It is still added as a separate MIME entity with its disposition set to
"inline". Exactly what you see in the mail client depends a bit on how
that client handles inline entities.

If you look in the raw message, see if you get a "disposition = inline"
label at the start of the warning.
