Ned,
Thank you for your clarification.
The specific issue as stake here is whether the following is acceptable:
Content-type: image/tiff; boundary=
"longboundarystringwrappedtonextlinetolimitlinelength"
It is completely legal.
This is what I believed. But is it wise?
I ask this question because we have have found in early interoperability
testing that such headers can cause problems with other vendors' software.
Does your experience suggest that deployed MIME implementations generally
allow this form?
