Transfer encoding not preserved

[singpolyma]

I have a hash representing a MIME message (headers and :body) and when I feed it to Mail.new() it mostly works, except that when I call .encoded on the new message, all the content-transfer-encodings get changed. I would be very very nice if the octets in the body of Mail.new(str).encoded were the same as the octets in the body part of str

Can you please provide a failing spec for this with the expected behaviour?

This would be really nice, but we're a ways off from that. By design, the library does a fair bit of normalization during parsing and we can't recall everything about the original message. Good target to pursue, but removing the milestone.
