# If Content-length is present for a body-part of a Multipart, does it # take precedent over a boundary string? The section 4.4 'Message Length' # perhaps implies that it does. It shouldn't. Content-length is optional, and (on many systems) unreliable. # Can a 'Transfer-Encoding: chunked' appear in the header of a body-part # of a Multipart entity? I think so. # If the answer to both these questions is yes, then I would like more # explicit wording that the rules for messages applies to nested messages # in Content-types that have nested entities, such as Multipart content- # type. Which rules? # If the answer is no, then I would like to know if we can change your mind. Not without supplying convincing reasons. Regards, Larry
