What if you call it control/mime_footer, which would supercede control/footer 
and contain a full MIME part?  For instance:

  Content-Type: text/plain

  This is the snot mail list.  To unsubscribe, send a message with
  the subject "UNSUBSCIBE" to every member of the list, individually.

The advantage here would be that you could make the footer anything you like: 
it could be HTML, or a PNG, or even a multipart/alternative with all three.

If you wanted to be super spiff about it, you could check to make sure there's 
a header block in the file and if not prepend the Content-Type: text/plain 
part.

Call me crazy,

Neale
