Can you provide a sample?

I *have* seen a few examples where it's glommed onto a file with
semicolons in the name, and that is confusing the
quote-an-unquoted-attachment-name sanitize step, yielding something
like:

    Content-Type: blahblahblah; name="fnord";fnord;fnord.bat

I don't know how a mailer parses this. Probably in the Worst Possible
Manner.

I'm going to work on quoting an unquoted filename with embedded
semicolons properly.
