Actually, the newlines are not part of it, and that may either be a result
of the email being formated or when I pasted it from my logs. It's just one
line string, with THREE boundary= parts!

Unfortunately, this is a user of our site that is reporting the problem, and
I've added debug statements to see the contents of the variables. The
person is not uploading an image at the time. On my systems (and we have
many others who have posted successfully), with both IE4 and IE5 on Win95
and Win98, I've not had any problems. But, we did run into one IE5 problem
in which the boundary values did not match. This is the first time I've
seen the multi-boundary problem.

I'm using Apache 1.3.9.
I'll see how much debugging help I can get from this user -- it's rather
embarrassing to ask your customer to debug for me, but what can I do since I
can't reproduce it myself? <smile/tear>
As another hack attempt at fixing this, I'm going to use
lastIndexOf("boundary=") instead of indexOf("boundary=") in your method
extractBoundary(). This should work in the case of a normal, single
boundary= situation -- and it does on my test systems -- but MAY also work
in this odd bug from this person's browser.
