The plot thickens, because some messages I forwarded yesterday (using
the MIME stuff) did come out just fine in Outlook. So it does appear
to be related to particulars of the messages. Of course, Outlook makes 
debugging this quite hard because you can't get at the raw text of the 
message, so comparing a failed and a succeeded message is a
problem. However, I should be able to get some more details if I
retrieve the messages with fetchmail. I'll do that after the weekend.
