This is a valid MHTML message.  Instead of using cid: URLs, it
makes the association by the Content-Location field.  The security
filtering code of the HTML filter will only preserve cid: URLs, so the
'http://www.moonfish.com/moonfish.gif' gets zapped in the HTML before
entity part relations are resolved.  This method is too restrictive
since it is valid to reference another entity via a regular URL.

I've recently checked in some changes to the CVS tree to where the
above case will be handled by MHonArc, along with better support for
MHTML messages.
