Remote validation servers

1995-09-24 11:37:00

What if I have a multipart/mixed MIME message.  The first part is just
text, and the second part itself is a multipart/signed MOSS message.
Is this allowed?  

What would happen if I sent this off to a remote validation server?
Would it try to tell me "Well, the first part of your message was not
signed and I can't say anything about that, but the other part has a
valid signature." ?  If so, how would this be different from a remote
validation server saying the same thing about the first and second
parts of a multipart/alternative message with an S/MIME signed message
in the second part?
