The header is added as a separate MIME part because the original
message is already multipart or doesn't consist of a single text/plain
message body.

The Blackberry sees the initial header text/plain part as the message
body and everything else as either attachments or things to be
ignored. This has nothing to do with the content of msg_header, just
the fact that there is one.

See the FAQ at <http://wiki.list.org/x/84A9> for more information.

In your user's case, this is basically a problem with the Blackberry
mail client. It is not unique to Blackberry, many "smart phone" mail
clients fail miserably at displaying messages with any sort of complex
MIME structure.
