The "Lotus Notes Mail Gateway for SMTP" product does indeed have
_seriously_ broken MIME support.  This product doesn't even support
something like "Content-transport-encoding: 7bit"!

They also produce multipart messages with spaces in boundaries, but don't
quote the boundary parameter value:

 content-type: multipart/mixed; boundary=foo bar

 --foo bar

Bleah.


So far we haven't heard anything from Lotus about what they plan to do
about this.  Does anyone from Lotus have anything to say?
