#479 cannot attach file to this message

[John Covici]

When I try to attach a file to this message I get the following error
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "Stack overflow in regexp matcher")
re-search-forward("\(<#\(mml\|part\)\(.\|\n\)>[ \n
]<#/\(mml\|part\)>\|^<#secure.+>$\)" nil t)
(save-excursion (goto-char (point-min)) (re-search-forward (concat

I am using nmh 6 and emacs 23.4.1.

Could this be related to #254?

[Bill Wohler]

It seems that way. If John's message reproduces the problem, and Peter's fix resolves it, then it would seem so. This can then be resolved as a duplicate.
