Yep.  But native MIME composition should be easier to modify, than the 
one of TM.  At one point I looked at changing the inclusion of HTML
files from:
	Content-Type: text/html
	Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
to
	Content-Type: text/html
	Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="filename.html"
	Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

But so much was hard coded around the text major type, that this
wasn't doable.

(The reason I wanted to do this, was that I was sending some HTML
pages to someone with Lotus Notes, and Lotus Notes is unable to make
use of the MIME type, and needs the file name extension to discover
that this was an HTML page, and open it in a web browser)
