[imp] multipart/report message viewing

[Michael M Slusarz]

Quoting dimon at intellinetinc.com:

| I found that this small  patch worked for multipart/report message
| viewing.
| Before it didn't work, 'cause it was looking for Action: field in the
| second
| part instead of the forst.

This is incorrect.  From RFC 3464:

[2]

   (c) The second component of the multipart/report is of content-type
       message/delivery-status, described in section 2.1 of this
       document.

[2.1]

   The body of a message/delivery-status consists of one or more
   "fields" . . . The per-recipient fields are described in section 2.3.

[2.3.3]

   The Action field indicates the action performed by the Reporting-MTA
   as a result of its attempt to deliver the message to this recipient
   address.  This field MUST be present for each recipient named in the
   DSN.

Thus, the Action: field MUST appear in the *second* part.  If not, it is a 
malformed e-mail message - not too much we can do about that.
