Well, there are routines in the MIME library to handle message/rfc822 parts
(that's what happens when you encounter one of those now). But the way
the MIME routines deal with sub-parts now is a bit weird ... you have to
know that your MIME part has sub-types. Right now all of the code that
deals with sub-parts only knows about multiparts, so we can add code to
deal with sub-parts under message/rfc822 piecemeal.
