Hi,

When I receive an SVG attachment, it first makes emacs freeze and then
crash. It might not be a problem of notmuch but a helper application,
but I don't know how to debug it; so maybe someone here can help me.

Any ideas?

Btw. it seems that the general problem is the the message mode tries
to process attachments. For example when I receive a large .tgz file,
the message mode in notmuch tries to decompress and parse the file,
which may take a while.

Thanks,
  Sebastian
