How to fetch Header and Payload from a MimeMessage

Question

Hi,
I have created a MimeMessage using an InputStream 'ins' like this
MimeMessage mimeMsg = new MimeMessage(Session.getInstance(new Properties(), null), ins);This MimeMessage now looks like as shown below:
Message-ID: <30289364.1195019945580.JavaMail.rishi@ap00475>Mime-Version: 1.0Content-Type: multipart/related;      boundary="ERCOT-XML-DATA";     Type="Application/X-ERCOT-MARKETS"--ERCOT-XML-DATAContent-Type: Application/XMLContent-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit<.....XML header....>--ERCOT-XML-DATAContent-Type: Application/XMLContent-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit<.....XML payload....>--ERCOT-XML-DATA--How can I get the above message to look like a proper MIME message (as shown below)? I tried using the method parse(), but it doesn't seem to do anything.
Message-ID: <13665843.1194849042656.JavaMail.rishi@ap00475>
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: multipart/related;
     boundary="ERCOT-XML-DATA";
     Type="Application/X-ERCOT-MARKETS"
--ERCOT-XML-DATA
Content-Type: Application/XML
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
<.....XML header....>
--ERCOT-XML-DATA
Content-Type: Application/XML
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
<.....XML payload....>
--ERCOT-XML-DATA--Also, how can I fetch the XML headers and the XML payload from this message? It would be great if you could tell me which methods in particular will be useful for this?
Thanks,

Hi bshannon,
Here is my code. Here I am trying to create an inputstream from a mime message and vice versa. But while creating the Mime message back from the inputstream, it does not give the linebreaks. It looks like one single line of string. Also I am not sure how I can fetch the XML header and payload from this message.
ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
          mimeEncodedMsg.writeTo(bos);
          byte[] ba = bos.toByteArray();
          ByteArrayInputStream bin = new ByteArrayInputStream(ba);
          BufferedReader inputReader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(bin));
          StringBuffer serverResponse = new StringBuffer();
                         while ( inputReader.ready() )
                              serverResponse.append( inputReader.readLine() );
                         inputReader.close();
// -----------------MIME conversion to InputStream done----------------------     
          BufferedReader serverReader = new BufferedReader( new StringReader (serverResponse.toString()));
          StringBuffer servResp = new StringBuffer();
               servResp.append( serverReader.readLine());
          serverReader.close();
          byte[] ba1 = servResp.toString().getBytes();
          ByteArrayInputStream bin1 = new ByteArrayInputStream(ba1);
          MimeMessage mimeDecodeMsg = new MimeMessage(Session.getInstance(new Properties(), null), bin1);
          mimeDecodeMsg.writeTo(new FileOutputStream("C:\\MimeTest2.txt"));Any idea why this is happening?
Thanks,
