They don't. POP3 and IMAP don't know or care, what is in the message
body, they pass it as is to its client, with all MIME headers and
encoding, if one is used. Client handles messages by itself, using its
MIME parser.
Also Netscape understands HTTP responses with Content-Type
"message/rfc822" as containing MIME messages with headers in response
body.
