If there are nested parts (within parts), `nndoc' already gives you the
full structure legibly, using proper indentation, and you can proceed with
it without difficulty.  Creating a nested separate `nndoc' group for one
subset of a MIME message also works.  Just type `C-d' another time for a
sub-multipart in the `nndoc' group.  It's surely fun to try, but my own
feeling is that it is not very useful to do, as the first `nndoc' already
has everything you need.  If you nest many `nndoc' that way, you might
have to type `q` a few times to pop out until the main summary reappears.
