Correct. I did a test with a mail with a 5 MB attachment over IMAPS.
The view-attachments downloads the attachments before presenting the
overview. I now even think, there is no other way, because the
attachments are in a sequence in the mail body, separated by some
describing head lines, and mutt must read the full body to present them.
