This is a possibility, but I'm a little scared of changing something so 
major as the Content-Type of the whole message just to avoid using 
separate MIME parts for the body and footer.

Are there really so many people out there who are using 
non-MIME-compliant mail readers that this is necessary?  In any 
MIME-compliant mail reader, the two parts should just show up together 
as one in the message content.
