There is a huge bug in ATTMail that causes it to reject MIME messages.
ATT is aware of the problem but (obviously) has not fixed it yet.

The only workaround I know of for this in PMDF is to configure a special
channel for connecting to attmail.com that uses a header option file
to strip the relevant MIME header (Content-type:).

I don't know who to contact at ATT to complain about this -- doubtless someone
else on this list will know the specifics. Any additional information about
this problem that has come up since the last time it was discussed on this
list would also be appreciated.
