No, the chance of a boundary value collision is NOT zero, as boundary value collisions can also occur due to the message body containing the boundary value, which is the issue that was originally brought up in this thread. Changing the boundary value to a static value makes it possible for a library to anticipate this and perform a linear scan to prevent the content it sends from being mangled, but in doing so also dramatically increases the chances of a collision occurring in the first place. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
