So when Gnus sees an archive file, it will be returned as a
multipart/mixed MIME part.  Of course, the archive file itself can also
be one of the parts (the first, for instance?), so that the entire
archive can be saved, if the user wants that.

So the example would be parsed as

---
Content-type: multipart/mixed

Content-type: application/ms-tnef
-
Content-type: application/pdf
---
