Huh?  Mine are all multipart/mixed with first part being the Courier
corruption warning and the second part being the original message
complete with full headers.

The problem is that the spam filters being used examine the headers to
look for spam.  But the orinigal headers are not there.  The x-header
could be used to easily alert the spam filter that it is a wrapped
message and to look in the second part to find the original headers and
e-mail.
