That looks OK to me.
If I view the source of a multipart message in Thunderbird (View > Message Source), this is the format... (best viewed where lines won't be wrapped as this may introduce the appearance of hard line breaks where there are none, particularly at "<space>boundary=..."):
### raw message begins
[...headers...]

### raw message ends
So it seems a single blank line is required:
- after the headers
- to separate boundary blocks from _subsequent_ content
but newlines preceding a boundary block (except the line after the headers) seem to be optional, and part of the section's content if present.
Does a single blank line appear in the plaintext view of your message? If you ctrl+A ctrl+C, can you paste a blank line into a text editor?
