Here's the snippit of message header.  I don't see any problem with the 
line as is, this is how it exists in the message header.  The mbox is 
readable by mutt (my text email reader of choice).

Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary
Content-Type: multipart/alternative; 
boundary="_----------=_1136314441199510"
MIME-Version: 1.0

If I delete these lines from the mbox, the process will continue to the 
next entry in the mbox and then it will fail with the same set of error 
messages again:

Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary
Content-Type: multipart/alternative; 
boundary="_----------=_1136319711206230"
MIME-Version: 1.0

Doesn't make much sense to me why it's having trouble ingesting MIME.
