MIC calculation

Good afternoon. 

If you would be so kind as to clarify one point. This is regarding the MIC calculation. 
The MDN seems clear for signatures. The problem I am having is not seeing (for sure)
when this applies and is calculated on specific data (sometimes it includes the MIME and sometimes not it seems).

When the ANSI X12 file is not encrypted it seems that RFC Draft 19 para 7.1 applies:
"When the EDI Interchange is part of a multi-part MIME content-type, the MIC MUST be calculated across the entire multi-part content, including the MIME headers."

This may be pretty clear, I am just confirming.
 
There are two points I hope to clarify. The first is that the question relates to just an AS2 Message (not the MDN message or reply) and the digital signature when the file is encrypted and when the file is not encrypted, keeping in mind the draft extract above.
 
However, the way I understand is 

1. The hash is calculated on the file (raw unencrypted edi file) as a detached body
2. The hash (document digest) is encrytpted with my private key thus creating a digital signature
3. The digital signature and document are then encrypted with a one-type symmetric symmetric key (say 3DES)
4. The one time key is now encrypted with my trading partners public key. We now have a "package" or digital envolope that can be sent out to the partner.

I must assume that encrypted data is handled differently than unencrypted data as far as the hash calc is concerned as it relates to signatures. 

Below is an encrypted and decrypted method of calculating the hash (MIC) using MD5 or Sha1. Note the "&" which shows what data is calculated.

Hash is calculated on the un-encrypted file only and then attached to the MIME as a multi-part signed object (encrypted data and signature). It does not seem possible to consider the MIME headers in the mime calculation here.

For example, the MIC would have ben calcualted over the encrypted below but not the MIME because its not a content type multi-part:
