This is set in MIME::Entity, in particular the "make_boundary" sub.
This generates a boundary with ten leading dashes (which agrees with
the twelve dashes you see in your boundary.) However these ten dashes
are absent in the Content-Type header. Why? I don't know. But that
should at least give you a starting point. :-) Good luck...
