You can see the whole message if you have a client that has a "raw"
message view. In that view, I see the following below the part
divider (at the end of the text section).
Content-Type: application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.
wordprocessingml.document;
name="TestDoc.docx"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-Disposition: attachment;
filename="TestDoc.docx"
followed by the base64 attachment.
With my mail client, saving the message to a file (for subsequent
viewing with an editor) only got down to the end of the text part.
Other mail clients may handle things differently.
