The attach command is convenient though. Perhaps if the -attach option

I'm not sure what you mean by this.  Are you suggesting that if some option
is not set in the profile, then the whatnow attach command run mhbuild?
Wouldn't that be the same as running the whatnow mime command?

Currently, the attach command defaults to printing:
  "whatnow: can't attach because no header field name was given."
If a header field name is given it adds the filename to the header. What
I'm suggesting is that the default is to construct an mhbuild directive
- something like `#text/plain; name="foo" <>[] ~/foo' and stick it on
the end of the body of the message draft.
