I have done some experimenting with Eudora 7.1.0.9, and have discovered
the following:

1)Eudora does properly parse a message with the above structure, so it
doesn't appear to be a Eudora rendering problem.

2)Eudora does not keep the raw message in In.mbx or apparently
anywhere. The message in In.mbx is a Eudora rendered message without
any part headers and with only the displayed alternatives. Thus it is
pretty much useless for seeing the actual mime structure of a message.
