Sure, I'm around for the whole conference once I'm done giving my 
tutorial. I fly out Monday 30th in the afternoon, so any time before then.

The one currently causing me to scream is why a MIME Multipart container 
which has a MIMText containing html and a MIMEBase containing a PDF 
added to it ends up with a Content-Transfer-Encoding of quoted-printable.
Should it even have a Content-Transfer-Encoding header given that it has 
no text of its own?

Where would I look to see where this header gets generated in Python 2.4.4?

(the problem is that this is in violation of RFC2045 and makes some MTAs 
do stupid things that result in blank messages arriving:

cheers,
