Hello listers:

Two items - first, it doesn't appear that an HTML attachment is properly stored as an attachment. I have hm_inlinehtml=0 but it's being overriden (or ignored). (This is with 2b12.)

Secondly, I had asked (maybe in private email) about the possibility of storing attachments in subdirectories. We have a local 1.x version that makes subdirectories as needed, and puts the attachments in them. That keeps the archive directory cleaner, and is more likely to allow leaving the attachment name unmodified.

For example (in our implementation), an attachment to 0123.html will be put in:
.attachments/0123/attachment.xyz

Do others think this is worthwhile, if easy to do? Is this something that could be easily rolled in with the other 2.0 changes? Of course, I'd rather not delay 2.0 for new development at this point - there's enough work with just getting what's been undertaken so far operating properly.

Cheers,
