I got an indignant (tongue-in-cheek) response from my brother-in-law
when I sent him a copy of your reply.

"*No I didn't!*"

As a test he had set up a new account on The Bat!  and it defaulted to
the setting "forward messages as attachments (MIME standard)" with no
user intervention.  He then did a clean install on another computer -
set up a new account and once again it defaulted to that setting.  (In
both cases the accounts were IMAP.)

He obviously has too much time on his hands being able to do all this
experimenting ;-) .

On looking at my own installation I find that all six POP accounts
have the setting unticked, while my one IMAP account has it ticked. It
would appear that The Bat! applies different settings depending on
whether the account is POP or IMAP.

Not a problem as we now know why it was forwarding the eml attachment
and how to prevent it (if desired), but thought I would pass this on
to add to the store of knowledge
