It has nothing to do with MIME but with the way sendmail stores the
messages in the queue. The messages are not stored per recipient but per
message (logical). If you want to make a differentiation between the
recipients of a message you will have to copy the message (all files in
the queue pertaining to that message) for each and every recipient (you
could make a distinction about what is intended) and deliver them
seperatly.

This would make things (much) slower and I wouldn't bet on it working
all the time.
