Request received by email from robbbeal@mac.com: Does Mozilla Mail support folders as attachments? If not, please strongly consider supporting them. This will allow Mac OS X users to effortlessly send app packages and file bundles. <http://developer.apple.com/techpubs/macosx/Essentials/SystemOverview/Bundle s/index.html> The mime type is multipart/x-folder. Use Apple's Mail.app and send yourself a folder. Look at the raw source in Mail.app to see what the encoding looks like. [snap] Thanks so much! Best. Robb Beal

Any reason this should be left Mac-specific?
