Think again. Adding mime structure, Evo took into consideration the
transfer-encoding header that was previously in the body, now in the
headers section of a mime part.

It's my fault in a way, because the diff had too little context:

diff -U 8 /tmp/saved-mail.orig /tmp/saved-mail

A way to add mime structure was one of my proposals.
