Oh, you mean "Content-Disposition: inline". Thunderbird seems not to
have any option to override that for attachments that look like text.
On closer examination the problem may be something to do with
canonicalization of line endings.

I've reattached the vm.c warning fix mentioned in my other email
in a .zip file; I think that should solve the problem.
