+*** mime-preview-condition and preview-situation
+
+  Conditions about preview generation are unified to
+'mime-preview-condition.  Namely other variables, such as
+'mime-view-visible-media-type-list, 'mime-view-content-filter-alist,
+were abolished.
+
+  Preview-situation is generated from entity information, running
+environment and 'mime-preview-condition.  These elements are checked
+to match with each other. (it is similar to acting-situation)
+
+  Format of preview-situation is association-list.  Following key is
+pre-defined:
+
+	'type			  media-type
+	'subtype		  media-subtype
+	'encoding		  content-transfer-encoding
+	'major-mode		  major-mode of MUA
+	<STRING>		  attribute of Content-Type field.
+	'body-presentation-method body-presentation-method
+
+If 'body-presentation-method is 'with-filter, 'body-filter is used to
+specify body-filter function.  If 'body-presentation-method is
+function, it is called to generate presentation of entity body.
+
+Setting for message/partial button is specified by
+'mime-preview-condition instead of hard-coding.
