(BenSpeakmon) One of the MimeMessage constructors in JavaMail (both 1.3 and 1.4) already does this, BTW. I'm not sure this is something that falls within commons-email's scope. The commons-email API, I think, is for the common cases where you just want to build and send an email without needing the power (or complexity) of JavaMail. If you're already pulling messages from an email server, I don't know why you wouldn't just use JavaMail for manipulating it – the power and complexity is just what you need for those kinds of jobs. And it doesn't seem worth the trouble to duplicate any of that code in commons-email when the existing code works just fine. I'd recommend WONTFIXing this one.

I think that this has to fall into that class of problems that would be better served with JavaMail, so I'd recommend this be wontfixed._
