[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

When I select multiple messages and forward them to someone, I
invariably get a response from them that they didn't receive anything.
Presumably this means either Gnus is doing something incorrect, or (more
likely) approximately no other MUAs can read the correct thing Gnus is
doing.  I've attached an example of a raw message I sent someone using
Gnus, containing other messages.
