I don't see incentives to spoof:

    MIME-Version
    Content-Type

What are the gains?

This has been discussed at great length.  Please consult the list archives.

Thanks - you couldn't summarize or its too hard to explain?

I can search, certainly not consult.   But let me "consult" GOOGLE:

      MIME-Version Exploits IETF-DKIM

Without going nuts looking all the results, I see whats in 4871 section

     8.1.1.  Addition of New MIME Parts to Multipart/*

and this seems about the l= body size issue which most people already 
agreed is a bad idea.

I don't see how the 5322.Mime-Version header can be exploited.

Anyway, never mind.
