|  Yes, I read they were "multipart/"-types, I was wondering wether they
|  are used in real-life WSP packets (any samples?), and also wether
|  packet-wsp.c should parse the payload as Multipart if it finds such a
|  header. Did you meet packets with this CT?

I remember having seen multipart/mixed and multipart/form-data at least
once, but I'll have to check my capture "database" in order to find such a
packet. The other multipart media types are not that common, unless in some
special applications (multipart/alternative is very common in the email
world (plain text, HTML, rich text versions of the same message).
