All this may be related to a minor problem that I've seen lately, that
messages are shown as having attachments when nothing is actually
attached.  All of these messages have embedded text with an internal
delimiters like:

--===============1279641514==
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
Content-Disposition: inline
