This is intended to be used from Twisted's imap server, but can probably
be adapted to other uses. It probably doesn't work out-of-the box (as I've
adapted it from a larger piece of code, and it's not a runnable example),
but it does produce something at least resembling what the RFC says it
should look like. Usage: You call getBody() from within IMailbox.fetch(),
setting ext to True if it is a BODYSTRUCTURE fetch. (self is a private
Message-type class, not the IMailbox, though it could probably be.)

Enjoy (and please let me know of any bugs in it).
