-----------------------------------------

Michael,

> String mimeType =3D "application/soap+xml"; // or "text/xml\", or doesn't=
 actually matter?
> return "multipart/related; type=3D\"" + mimeType + "\"; start=3D\"" + ROO=
TPART_NAME + "\"; " + header.substring( ix );


AFAIK it makes no sense to specify a type attribute. The MIME type of this =
part is multipart/related, period. It is a container whose body (beofre the=
 boundary) is usually just empty (or contains a dummy string), and there is=
 no need to specify the type of this emtpyness.=20

It is also incorrect to reuse the MIME boundary of the parent. It is a new =
container and must therefore start with a new boundary string (and close th=
e boundary after the container ends).
