No, that last boundary marks the end of the mime part, signfifed by the two hyphens at the end. In this case it's the end of the whole message. That happens to prove that the message is not truncated. Only the software that created the message would have written that end boundary. My conclusion is that the message arrived as is. Either the original PDF was damaged, or the message was created with damage.

No, the end of DATA is signalled by the five-character sequence CR LF dot CR LF, that is, a dot on a line by itself. So your software is buggy if it stops at CR LF dot without examining what follows dot.
