No, that's actually not the problem. Evolution actually preserves the
boundaries fine, but sometimes re-QP-encoding the data will result in a
slightly different format.

I think content headers being not being exactly the same has sometimes
also affected pgp verification (although it usually doesn't seem to be
the problem - in most of the reported cases anyway).
