No.  I was referring to the ContentType of each individual item in the
MessagePart collection.  Indy's encoders do not care what the ContentType of
the individual parts are when encoding a message.  Robert's earlier postings
were trying to suggest that the ContentType caused Indy to add extra bytes
to the message, but that is not actually the case.

Only if you do not provide any ContentType yourself.  Otherwise, Indy does
use whatever value you put in.

That depends on what exactly your code looks like to begin with, and which
version of Indy you are actually using.
