On first glance, I think it is because you have no "alternative" text
for non-MIME-aware MUAs between the main headers and the first multipart
boundary. Not sure if that is a bug on my part. Must go read the RFC if
that text is a MUST or a SHOULD.

In the meantime, can you check if my assumption is correct and modify
the message like this:

[...]
MIME-Version: 1.0
To: <snipped>
Subject: lbozzzpa.txt : 07/05/103_18:30
Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="ATHELMBOUNDARY"
Message-Id: <E19DTgq-0005af-00@???>
From: <snipped>

Alternative Text here ("Your MUA is not MIME-aware bla bla...")

--ATHELMBOUNDARY
Content-Type: text/plain

Hello,

You can also set exiscan_demime_pickyness to "1", this should also fix it.
