Oops. The current function, like, totally removes all old MIME headers and puts in new ones, which are text/plain. The rationale was, I think, that sometimes the charset and CTE were wrong (by default0, but the rewriting should definitely be done with a lot more care. Or perhaps it shouldn't rewrite at all if there already are MIME headers in the article.
