As long as you're in there .... could you do a couple more things?  Please? 
:-)

- According to RFC 2046, if you get a multipart subtype you don't know about,
  you're supposed to handle it as multipart/mixed.

i saw that in the comments.  i think the code would do that -- if the
parser would let the unknown subtype through.  i'll see how hard that
would be.

- Would you be willing to write tests for this stuff?  Specifically handling
  multipart/somerandomjunk?  If you have questions about the test suite, just
  feel free to ask; David Levine is probably the most up-to-date on it, but
  I've done some work in there as well.

okay.  i'll look at that too.
