Maybe. The use of Content-Type: actually predates RFC2045, and if we
include a MIME-Version header then we should make 100% sure that we also
conform to the rest of RFC2045, which I hadn't actually looked at. In
particular, we should take care of Content-Transfer-Encoding.

I'd prefer to leave MIME-Version out for now, I think.
If I remember correctly _some_ mail applications or news (Usenet) agents 
did not respect Content-Type without MIME-Version, I think according to 
standard. Perhaps that have changed.

As to the other MIME header:
        Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
