[dev] Forwarding of 'multipart/alternative' broken?

[Marc Jauvin]

Hmmm, found another bug I cannot explain... I sent the previous message 4 times
to the list... the first 3 times, I added my reply AFTER Michael's text, and MY
reply was missing from the email...

Anyone has seen a similar behavior?

Thanks.
