Yeah, though it should be really simple (as in not worth writing?).  Just
create a tmp directory, cd to it, mhstore (probably with -type application)
the attachments, and then add them with "at *" at the whatnow prompt.

A custom whatnowproc could do the attach, though again maybe not worth
the effort.

I think that Norm might have been asking about attachments from multiple
messages, in which case dist wouldn't work.
