Documentation

Add a tag to insert a MIME message part from a file.

You are prompted for the filename containing the object, the media type if it cannot be determined automatically, a content description and the DISPOSITION of the attachment.

This is basically mml-attach-file from Gnus, modified such that a prefix argument yields an "inline" disposition and Content-Type is determined automatically.
