In my opinion, the difference between 2 and 3 is only interesting if
you're trying to determine the validity of the mail message
seriously.  When you're reading mail normally, it's about as
interesting as whether the message is encoded in quoted-printable or
base64.  That is, not very.

Of course, you're free to disagree.  :-)  Which is why we have
`gnus-buttonized-mime-types'.  Which I still think should always
default to nil.
