Doesn't Content-Type: text/plain; charset=$charset header need also MIME-Version: 1.0Maybe. 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
