the extra mime-headers might come from tin itself via tin/attributes.
~/.tin doesn't check if the user 'hand'-supplies
mime-headers; this is some kind of bug we should fix somehow. the big
püroblem here is what we should do if there are some hand-supplied
mime headers. overwrite them? don't add our mime-headers? overwriting
has the disadvantage that we might break nested mime-structures. no
replacing them might lead to bogus mime articles (hand supplied
header says CTE=quoted-printable, but body is in 8bit, etc.pp.)

currently post_8bit_header=ON (not recommended) will never add any
mime-headers and can be used if one likes to compose (multipart) mime
articles by hand. post_8bit_header=OFF (recommended) will add
mime-headers whenever they are needed. unfortunately we do not check
for any usersupplied headers here. IMHO we should overwrite them - if
the uer really likes to hand-compose mime-articles he could/should
use post_8bit_header=ON.
