Hm?  As long as the MIME message doesn't contain the footer used for
forwarded messages, I don't see the problem.  Let's say the header is
"@" on a line by itself and the footer also.  Then everything between
the two "@" lines is a MIME message, and saving that stuff to a file
produces a MIME message.  Where's the problem?
