honestly, I looked in the manual first, and then seemed to remember
some old mail about this, but searching the archive didn't return
anything useful... but...

GNUS appears to prefer showing the text/html to the text/plain

bias code in there, but I couldn't find it.  How do I make it work the
other way?
