oGnus v0.01 has trouble displaying the following multi-part MIME
message.  At the top of the *Article* buffer, I see the text

 This message is in MIME format. Since your mail reader does not understand
 this format, some or all of this message may not be legible.

Below, I've copied the message with all headers as Gnus displays it.
Is this a Gnus problem or is the message improperly encoded?

Thanks!

Sam

The Mime-Version header is missing.  What happens when you `e'dit the
article and add the following header?

Mime-Version: 1.0
