from raatzb@keppelnet.com.au: Is there a way of combining multipart news articles. Explorer has a feature called combine and decode. Does netscape 4.61 have anything like this.

Opps, reassigned #11057 it took me to this screen and I was somehow able to accept as assigned by mistake. Going to try to reassign to nobody then see if it goes back to new, if not I will fire off an email for someone who knows what they are doing.

If someone does this, it would be great if all parts of a multipart binary posting would automatically be combined and shown as one single message. That would make groups with many multiparts much easier to read, combining/decoding messages and seeing if all parts are there would be much easier too. I know there are newsreaders who do it like that, and it's MUCH more convenient. I have posted a screenshot of what this could look like in n.p.m.wishlist, if anyone is interested (Message-ID: <862u40$mjg3@secnews.netscape.com>) Florian

No. Has combine and decode been implemented in the latest build of Mozilla?
Severity: normal → enhancement
Setting severity to 'enhancement'. (Hope that doesn't doom the bug.)
just curious to see if this bug has been resolved yet.
A more recent version of this bug was filed as bug 60981. I am marking this bug as a dup of that one because it has more discussion, and is actually assigned to someone. Lower bug number is just one of the criteria for dups. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 60981 ***
