Only partly true.... it would be possible to get viral infected
material into some PC MUAs using uuecoded chunks in the main body... so
MIME components are not required, and single parts (even of type
text/plain due to some PC braindamage) can be infectious.
Also remember header MUA buffer overruns recently causing problems with
several types of MUAs. Easier to scan everything.
