This is decided by the javamail implementation of Sun, see
http://java.sun.com/products/javamail/index.jsp
(we use javamail 1.3.3 from 2005-09-10).

I've just noticed that a new javamail release 1.4 is out and
this supports a |PreencodedMimeBodyPart| class, see
http://java.sun.com/products/javamail/FAQ.html
http://jcp.org/aboutJava/communityprocess/maintenance/jsr919/JavaMail-1.4-changes.txt

Porting to this could help to solve your problem,
the spot in our code to look at is in
org.xmlBlaster.util.protocol.email.SmtpClient.java:sendEmail(EmailData 
emailData)
