Section 4.1 says:

S: Content-Type: multipart/related; boundary=%%%%; type=tracking-status

It should say:

S: Content-Type: multipart/related; boundary=%%%%;
S:  type="message/tracking-status"

Notes:

According to RFC 2387 section 3.1, the value of the type parameter for
multipart/related is supposed to be the "MIME media type of the 'root' body
part." Additionaly, section 3 of RFC 3886 specifically states that the value is
supposed to be "message/tracking-status". But all seven examples in section 4.1
show just the subtype as the parameter value.

*** This errata report applies to all of the examples in Section 4.1 ***
