Re: [Evolution] Could not parse MIME message

[Jeffrey Stedfast <fejj ximian com>]

A multipart/mixed mime part MAY NOT be encoded using base64 or
quoted-printable or any other encoding for that matter. These messages
are broken according to the mime specification.

Other mail software doesn't handle them either.
