Hello,

this is just a RFC, because I can't think of any elegant way to address
the issue, given the shortcomings of the RMail API. Please read the
lengthy comment in the patch, and let me know if anybody has any ideas
about this issue.

P.S.: I've created a "sup-dato" repository in Gitorious, in case that's
helpful. Should I be creating merge requests?

+      # not work as intended because this inner payload need not carry a

+      # for which the MIME-Version header is required, which causes for the
