Notes:

In four locations (in three examples), a Content-Length header is shown for a multipart body-part. But comparing with RFC 1521 section 7.2, Content-Length has no defined meaning within MIME, and it appears that any appearance in a body-part header must be ignored. Thus, these headers are meaningless, and the authors would probably not have included them if they had researched the subject.

(Bruno Chatras discovered this discrepancy.)
