 good point.  in effect, that means semantics like multipart/alternative,
 rather than multipart/mixed.  In fact, as I recall, that was the difference
 between the RFC 733 constructs for an individual having multiple addresses,
 versus a group with multiple addresses.

 this is a nice example of the reason this topic is probably more complicated
 that it would seem, at first consideration.
