By definition that is impossible. The entire message in the example  
data is a single MIME part of type:

Content-Type: text/calendar; method=REQUEST;
	charset="UTF-8"

Adding an attachment would mean the message would no longer contain a  
single MIME part, but would then becore a MULTIPART message.
