I'd post the file here if it weren't NDA-covered content. It seems to happen when someone forwards me an email with an HTML body. Not every time, but very often. Here's a common succession: 1. "A" sends email to me with HTML in the body, it renders fine in w3m, I can read it fine. 2. "B" replies to "A" and includes "A"'s original in the reply body. This is the mail that turns up empty in Gnus. Usually, B's text is also HTML, but sometimes not. 3. "C" replies to "B" and includes "B"'s original in the reply body (which happens to include "A"'s original as well). Everything renders fine -- C's text, B's text, and A's HTML. Reiner> Is it legitimate mail or spam? Perfectly legitimate (except for the fact that the b**tards are sending HTML emails). Ironically, spam renders beautifully.
