 * How can I set Postie to allow XML files to become attachments with links in a
   post?

 * Just to clarify. It sounds like you have XML files attached to your emails, but
   they are not showing up in the posts?

 * Worse – the messages are getting bounced for having an illegal attachment. I 
   tried adding text to the mime types, but it’s already a default as would I assume
   application/text to be. I looked for extension that would allow file types but
   didn’t find one.

 * Can you add the XML files directly to the media library?
