Subject: Replying without attachments

I received a message with a MIME attachment, to which I wanted to reply. 
Having been caught once before, I checked carefully before sending the 
reply, and noticed that Pine 3.89 had added the attachment to the reply,
which doesn't seem right to me. One would rarely want to send an attachment
back to its sender, I feel.

However, I was able to delete the attachment before sending the message, 
which saved some embarrassment, but the recipient tells me that the message 
was nevertheless sent as MIME MULTIPART/Mixed, despite having no 
attachments. This must be a minor bug...

Regards,
Philip
