Each part of the message is recognized as message/rfc822 format by Gnus, however. I've commented about this before and it was recommended that I create a new type in nndoc-type-alist, but 1) this seems like overkill when there appears to be a semi-standard MIME spec. 2) I am not an elisp programmer and couldn't figure out how to do this in a million years.
