Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Receive RMA E-Mail From Linksys RMA Department (Example Attached). 2. Attempt to open with Thunderbird. Actual Results: Thunderbird displays the text/plain content, instructing the user to open the e-mail with an HTML-capable e-mail client. Expected Results: Thunderbird should have displayed the text/html content.

According to RFC 2046: "the order of body parts is significant. In this case, the alternatives appear in an order of increasing faithfulness to the original content. In general, the best choice is the LAST part of a type supported by the recipient system's local environment." In this message the plain text part is last. Probable duplicate of the now somewhat confused bug 108010. Perhaps this bug should be an enhancement request to provide the user with a way to selected which part to display.

I think make changes for broken messages not good idea but still we can have some option in config editor to make this work.

FYI. Bug 130119 is RFE of "user's choice of part". > Option to choose what part of multipart/alternative message to display
attachment 324134 [details] displays the HTML content for me. Closing as WFM.
