Summary: .eml attachments in email

Initial Comment:
I think there's a bug somewhere in the email package. 
I wanted to write a 
script to send emails with certain attachments using
libgmail, and found 
this one, http://pramode.net/articles/lfy/fuse/4.txt ,
it works fine with 
most files, but it fails with .eml files, and what i
can't understand is 
that if I change the extension of those .eml files to
.txt, the script works 
fine.  However, when trying to mail a simple textfile
containing "hello", en 
changing the extension to .eml before sending, it fails
again. it doesn't 
fail when I don't change the extension to .eml.
Any help please? I pasted the output I get (over and
over again) in the attached textfile.

I'll need more information in order to debug this.  Please try to create a
small, standalone, reproducible test case.  I don't have libgmail available
so please don't write a test case that depends on that.
