Default Request for save attachment umask 033 option

hi,

i am using mutt on my linux box and save my attachments into a folder
witch is accessible from the samba server so the attachments could be
used from different machines in the network. Every time I save an
attachment I have to the change the rights. I really like mutt, but
that drives me crazy. I found some discussions in the past about the
arguments about the security reasons form hardcoding the umask 077. But
even keeping this in mind I would like to see a option in the .muttrc to
change the umask to 033 for saving attachments. Am I the only one?

Regards
Hans-Peter
