If the mail program does not support MIME, then it will just
display the MIME separators.  All of the body text should still
be intact and perfectly readable.

If a mail readed notices MIME encoding then it must recognize MIME,
so why is it not displaying it?  If it was base64 encoded then I
could understand why, but body text is generally not altered.
