MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/x-paf
Subject: M4.1.4
This email is marked as being text, but an unregistered subtype, so a
normal user should NOT get this information without a question.
M4.1.4
For unrecognized subtypes, show or offer to show the user the "raw"
version of the data after conversion of the content from canonical
form to local form.

Note that the "Steps to reproduce" neglected to mention that the mimetest
address sends a message back, that's the one to be viewed.
Reducing severity because I don't see a "major loss of function." We have far
more visible MIME compliance bugs (e.g. bug 182627) which are designated
"normal."
