As you could see, the message was signed whenever the "part" or
"multipart" string was found. Isn't it in any RFC or other place a
definition that it should be on the beginning of the line, with no
spaces, or chars before it? If it isn't I'm proposing that this mime
signing stuff only be used with <multipart> (no # to not trigger
anything) and <part> in the beginning of the line.
