pi,

I assume you're referring to the IP Address fix ???

I'm presently experimenting with another lexer change.  A while back I
noticed that mime header parts ( the Content-Type, Content-Disposition,
etc lines after a mime boundary) are tagged as head:Content-Type, etc
and thought it wrong.   I'm presently using "mime:" as the tag for these
lines which distinguishes them from the same lines in the message's
header.  If you're interested in experimenting/testing I've attached a
patch.  I'm thinking of including this change in 0.17.4 :-)
