multipart/signed and multipart/encrypted are defined in RFC847,
which punts the exact details. For PGP, the details are in RFC3156.
The gory details for S/MIME are in RFC5750 and related.
Okay ... it looks like that is mentioned in RFC 3156. So it's not
really an S/MIME thing as much as it is a OpenPGP thing. From what
I see it looks like in canonical form of text/plain trailing spaces
are OK. Or am I misreading things? The only thing mentioned about
the canonical form for text parts is to use CRLF as a line break.
Here's the gotcha clause from RFC3156, section 3:
Additionally, implementations MUST make sure that no trailing
whitespace is present after the MIME encoding has been applied.
Which would blow chunks if we used a C-T-E of '7bit' and failed to do
the Q-P escaping of a trailing blank...
