from INigo and Margaret:
EML uses some parts of DocBook schema (eg. <para> and children). Some of these
are generating the parsing errors in XMLSpy 2006+. For example, in eml.xsd,
there are these lines inside <para> :
 <ulink url="http://dublincore.org/documents/usageguide/">
        <citetitle>
             The Dublin Core Metadata Initiative
        </citetitle>
</ulink>

So it seems that there are 2 choices for the short term:
1. take all the ulink, citetitle, and other offending tags out of eml
documentation
2. add these elements in as children of para

We could consider adding these back (and maybe more?) docBook elements later
(i.e., 2.1+)
