Here's another way of putting it: I think the vast majority of  
multipart/alternative usage that isn't text/plain vs. text/html is  
broken. So yes, with multipart/alternative messages, I think we should  
show the richer of html or text, depending on whether both are  
available in the message and how IMP is configured, and then make  
everything else available as an attachment.

Otherwise, IMP users are going to continue to get messages from broken  
MUAs and consider IMP to be buggy because they can't get to the  
attachment. It won't matter if we're right.
