I have to ask ... does that actually HAPPEN? Like, ever? Also, your
message you sent out does NOT contain a Content-MD5 header, AFAICT; I don't
know if you only do that for multipart messages or if it was stripped out.
So I guess when you and Norm email each other, you will be able to detect
if corruption happens; otherwise, no one will notice :-/ Well, I suspect
some other Content-MD5-fans will probably speak up.
