Some words of explanation:
GpgOL, in some cases, will encapsulate the true MIME representation of an outgoing multipart/encrypted or multipart/signed messsage into an application/octet-stream part, which is technically inserted as an attachment with filename GpgOL_MIME_structure.mime. This is probably done to work around mangling of the MIME tree by Outlook/Exchange.

It should be noted that (most?) other MUAs do not appear to support this. Thunderbird / KMail do not. We should support this GpgOL/web, however.

This is also the underlying problem in several of the rendering problems listed in T7964 .

Tentative fix under development in branch work/tfry/parse_gpgol_mime_structure .
