Ok, here is the beef: I don't get to reproduce the problem right now.  I
am not sure whether the original bug report includes lossage (it should,
I think) but I have no idea what might have triggered the problem now
(apart from having changed the mime forwarding option, but I cannot
image that this is involved here).

At the moment I don't get to trigger it in the current active Emacs
session.  So I don't think it makes sense to focus on details of the
message before I manage to create circumstances where the problem
reoccurs.

As I said: it was the first time I ever used that command (using it from
the menu), it immediately failed, and I sent a bug report.
