Further analysis shows that the I-D-Announcements, which are being sent
through the datatracker, are having their Content-type header case-squashed.

So the MIME boundary used by the current IDST is "NextPart".  But the
headers going out since we started using the datatracker sender are
squashed to "nextpart".  As a result, the NextPart boundaries are not
being recognized, and the message is going out with incorrect formatting.

More to follow!
