The attached MIME message is incorrectly parsed by IMP 4.2, i.e. it is  
unable to display the alternative part. This is the first error I have  
noticed.

The message contains 2 top-level multipart/alternative MIME-entities.  
The second entity recursively contains MIME-parts. IMP shows the  
second part as attachment icons, but only the XLS, PDF, PDF parts are  
visible and the text/html part are missing.

I have checked out the message structure and could not find any  
problems. The ancient IMP 3.x, current Thunderbird, current Pine and  
current Mutt all parse it correctly.
