Wait, the content-length of a multipart/mixed part should indeed be
0 -- it itself has no content.  It is the sub-parts that have
content.  Arguably Content-Length should be entirely omitted on
multipart/* parts, but its presence is unlikely to cause
interoperability concerns.

But that does beg the question -- are you seeing the headers bug only
on multipart/mixed messages?  How are you creating them via the web
UI, by adding attachments?
