> The constructor of Message(InputStream) uses its inner class MessageBuilder 
> to parse the input stream and create the object. The method 
> MessageBuilder.field(String) calls Field.parse(String) to parse header 
> fields. This method throws an IllegalArgumentException on parse errors.
> Clearly the Message constructor should throw a MimeException instead of an 
> IllegalArgumentException if an invalid header field is encountered (or else 
> it should simply ignore the field). So either Field.parse(String) should 
> throw a MimeException or MessageBuilder.field(String) should catch and 
> convert it.
> And by the way, could you make MessageBuilder public so it can be extended if 
> a slightly different behavior is desired.
