No "MIME-Version:" header as far as I could see. (Nor any C-T for that
matter.)

It looks like you've garbled the article (splitting it into bits)
in the forwarding process, so it's hard to tell what was wrong with
the original.  Try forwarding us the entire original message as a
message/rfc822 part.

The usual suspect for supposedly-HTML mails appearing as plain text is
a lack of the correct labelling (MIME-Version or Content-Type), either
missing at source or stripped by some gateway or list mangler.

Ah. This is the most interesting response. Would you mind sending me
the pertinent parts of your .gnus and/or .emacs so I can see what
might be different?

Problem with (mixed (alternative (plain) (html))) message (was: ...)

Michael> [2. html_mail --- message/rfc822; 26507]...

Hmm.  That all seemed okay to me[1], allowing for the fact I've set my
Gnus to prefer plain text to HTML.  If I select the text/html button
of the Alternative, I get the HTML drawn properly.  So your problem
must be either a regression in Gnus or a difference in our setups.

[1] with gnus-version = "Pterodactyl Gnus v0.95"

Here's what I get when I do C-d on your message above:

(I've trimmed the subject for line length reasons).  I can select any
of these parts and get the expected result.


A bug/feature report with this, though: citation highlighting is
applied to the text/html part after it's drawn by W3, stomping all
over the faces.  So I no longer know what's a hyperlink, for example.
Shouldn't citation and emphasis highlighting be applied as part of the
text/plain renderer instead?  (That would also speed rendering of
messages with huge binary attachments)

Well, have you tried `K b' to get the multipart/alternative buttons?
