Subject: 23.0.60; gnus fail to attach file when sending mail 
Date: Tue, 16 Dec 2008 10:59:57 +0100

Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the emacs-pretest-bug <at> gnu.org mailing list.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

Hi, when i try to attach files with gnus, it fail with:

,----
| mm-insert-file-contents: 
| Opening input file: aucun fichier ou répertoire de ce type, 
| /home/thierry/download/#("~/download/toto.txt" 0 19 (face nil))
`----

Here is how the attached file is displayed in the body of the mail:
(i remove the "part" tags)

,----
| type="text/plain" filename=#("~/download/toto.txt" 0 19 (face nil)) disposition=inline description=test
`----

However if i modify that like:

,----
| type="text/plain" filename="~/download/toto.txt" disposition=inline description=test
`----

The attached file (toto.txt) is sent


If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
    `bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
If you would like to further debug the crash, please read the file
/usr/share/emacs/23.0.60/etc/DEBUG for instructions.
