Blake,

I completely agree that it was discussed.  (I think I raised the issue.)
And I agree that the content for the message is correct.  What needs to
be changed is the commentary not the message.

5.9  failed 
    Commentary text states that the body part is the same 
as 5.1 - this 
is not correct as the signature values and exContent are different
(content is actually "\0xd\0xaThis is some sample content."

This is something we discussed a bit ago -- the problem is 
that ExContent.bin is not valid MIME data.  The compromise we 
reached was that a CRLF would be inserted at the beginning, 
which would make it valid MIME data (implicit text/plain).  
When the MIME wrapping is removed, it results in ExContent.bin.
