Ok, great. From your debug message I gather that there maybe something
wrong with the bodystructure then. I don't know how Apple Mail
constructs the preview pane of a message, but generally the
bodystructure is used to find which parts are to be displayed inline and
which are attachments.

The envelope is used to construct the sender, recipient, subject, etc as
used in the list pane. Since the original report mentioned the list pane
IIRC, I asked for the envelope.

Agreed.
Looking at the attachment's headers:

13_606.pdf;name*=iso-8859-1''%32%30%31%33%5F%36%30%36%2E%70%64%66

there might be a problem with the Content-Type and Content-Disposition's
display in a BODYSTRUCTURE response. The double-single-quotes and
asterisk might mess up quoting.
So to expand the test commands:
nc imapserver imapserver
x login username password
x select test
x fetch * envelope
x fetch * bodystructure
x fetch * rfc822.header
x logout
where in this case I'm particularly interested in the bodystructure
response.
Also please include the gmime version you use since there have been some
fixes in this area that may be relevant or helpful.

You can cat the output to a txt attachment. Always works.
