I don't get it. In "raw" form, an attachment is hundreds or thousands of
lines of gobbledygook, whereas a mime boundary is a line or so of
somewhat readable text. How is it useful to show the former but hide the
latter? Especially since the various Content-Type headers are shown.
There definitely needs to be _some_ command that completely undoes what
rmail-mime does to a message. Then rmailedit could use it instead of the
hack it uses now (bug#9840). If not rmail-mime, then `rmail-unmime' or
somesuch.
