Hi,

i wonder, shouldn't the "content-transfer-encoding=8bit" header be put
into `main' headers of a multipart message, rather then into the
message parts? imho, "content-transfer-encoding=8bit" only has `real'
value when used in the main message headers, and is useless in the
headers of a MIME part.

i.e., gnus should not put "content-transfer-encoding=8bit" into
headers of MIME parts, but should put "content-transfer-encoding=8bit"
into main headers iff a part exists which requires that c-t-t should
be 8bit.

	Best regards, -- Vladimir.
