I see the problem.

It was the most important reason.  But mime -> mml -> mime also fails
for other cases.  I don't remember the details, but if you use it when
forwarding you'll see problems quite often.

The problem is that MML is in a sense a "higher level" language than
MIME, so it's probably not so easy to do.

We could:

1. Enable mime-to-mml for text/plain messages only.  This is the most
   common type, and I think it should work fine.

2. Make `S D e' take a prefix argument, so that mime-to-mml is used
   when it's supplied.

(or both, of cause).
