I've only ever seen the problem with Content-Type: application/pgp using
Sun's mailtool. I don't know that I've ever gotten mail with unknown
Content-Type though...wait let me whip some up...
Mailtool assumes anything with a content type is an attachment. The
type is used as the name of the attachment. A Content-Type: of
application/foo or of just foo both yeild an attachment named foo.
