Regarding the multiple enclose issue with respect to the sieve mime loop
specification, here is the modified text I'm putting in to the doc based
on yesterday's WG meeting. Does anyone have comments/modifications?

If multiple "enclose" actions are executed by a script, the message is
enclosed multiple times.  (If a Sieve script desires to choose between
different enclosures, or wants to delay the enclosure to the end of the
script, it can use variables with appropriate tests. <xref
target="RFC5229" />)
 

This looks good to me.

I would also change the following paragraph in Section 6:

OLD:
  A new Sieve action command is defined to allow an entire message to
  be enclosed as an attachment to a new message.  After enclosure,
  subsequent actions affecting the message header or content use the
  newly created message instead of the original message; this means
  that any use of a "replace" action or other similar actions should be
  executed before the "enclose" action.

NEW:
  A new Sieve action command is defined to allow an entire message to
  be enclosed as an attachment to a new message.  After enclosure,
  subsequent actions affecting the message header or content,
  as well as tests operating on the MIME structure or accessing
  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
  MIME header fields, use the
  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
  newly created message instead of the original message; this means
  that any use of a "replace" action or other similar actions should be
  executed before the "enclose" action.

To make it clear that tests might also be affected by the enclose action.
